Could I be pregnant?

Hi,
I was wondering if I could have some advice please.

I had some (what I thought was) implantation bleeding a week before my period was due and some lower abdo discomfort. I went to the doctor as this is very unusual for me. The pregnancy test was negative but found I had a UTI and was given antibiotics for this.

I am currently two days away from my period, pregnancy tests all negative. Could it still be too early to test and could I still be pregnant? I thought as I had the bleeding 4 days ago if I was it would have come back positive by now if I was.

Hope you can help! Thanks 😊

Discomfort was likely from the uti. Test again when period is due. Implantation bleeding only occurs in around a quarter of pregnancies so isn’t that common.

Thank you. I've never had that sort of bleeding before, it was pink almost spotting. I'll wait a few more days for my period to arrive.

Could it have been from the uti? You can have blood in your pee when you wipe with a uti.

I’ve not had implantation bleeding before so not sure how long after a positive test would happen

It was pink blood. I'm having some brown discharge this morning but still no period. I'm not sure I'll have to keep waiting and re test :/

@Rachelhjames it’s pink blood with a uti. Was with me anyway. Didn’t turn brown though that definitely sounds more like spotting
