Dear Ask The Doctor: My cycle is usually between 28 to 30 days I am now 32 days and had very little bleeding this morning and some cramping. A few hours have gone by and no more bleeding or cramping. Took a pregnancy test 4 days ago and it was negative. My husband and I are trying to concieve. Just not sure if I'm pregnant or about to start my period. Any advice?
Dear Lori: I do understand that you are concerned by your symptoms. The light bleeding you experienced could be due to menstruation or an implantation bleed. I would advise that you take another pregnancy test after a week, since it might be possible that the pregnancy hormones have not yet reached a level in which it can be detected in the pregnancy test. Another option would be to see your doctor and do a blood pregnancy test which is more sensitive in determining pregnancy. |
