Would this be too light for an entire period? It also came three dayz early. This is all I used, plus whatever was on the loo paper (mostly light brown, and once red) when I wiped or passed when I went for a pee. This was over a 48 hour period, and it’s since just been light brown when I wipe….

Have you taken a pregnancy test?

Could be implantation, could be spotting - the only way to know is to test.

Doesn't fit the pattern of implantation bleeding from what I've seen.

Worth noting that most women don't experience implantation bleed.

I’d try take a pregnancy test just to double check. It could be a very irregular period this month or some spotting before your period is due.

Is this amount of period a worryingly-low amount d’you reckon? I took a test yesterday which was negative but unsure how long I should leave it .. I’m currently 15dpo.. should have technically started my period today

In which case it sounds like spotting before the period starts

Natalie123123123 · 30/12/2023 23:46

And if it doesn’t start fully, do I take it as just an odd period or should I see my doctor about it? Worried it’ll affect my fertility

I thought 1/3 women experience IB?

Implantation bleeding is not that rare. I've experienced it in 2 pregnancies

Hiddenvoice · 31/12/2023 07:58

I experienced implantation bleeding but it wasn’t actually until I hit 4 weeks and was a bit lighter. My midwife said it’s not as common as you think and usually later than you’d assume too.

I would put yours down to spotting before your period or perhaps an irregular period. Have you been unwell or stressed this month which could delay or change your period?

Natalie123123123 · 31/12/2023 13:31

nah bot been stressed but had a sore throat for about a week before the spotting started then had a cold/viral thing since the day it started.
did a frer today just in case and it just came up No…. I started cramping on my lower left (like period cramps) since very early this morning, but no further AF. Just still a bit of light light light (and light brown) spotting.
So who bloody knows what’s going on!!
