Question 1

went to doc yesterday with light bleeding 10 days before period and she gave me emergency contraception to take. heavy bleeding now with pauses. help?

Morning after pill: Heavy bleeding after morning after pill is normal. It causes you to rapidly shed the lining of the uterus, which is the heavy bleeding.

Question 2

very light bleeding/spotting 10 days before period is due. unprotected sex without ejaculation 5 days before the bleeding. what does this mean?

Accepted Answer

Hard to say: There are a lot of things that can cause irregular bleeding.  Most are not harmful or worrisome.  Pregnancy always needs to be checked for , but if not pregnant and this continues a visit to gyn and labs & ultrasound can likely give a precise answer as to why this is happening.

Question 3

can you have implantation bleeding 10 days before period?

Accepted Answer

Not likely: Wait. A positive pregnancy test can tell a woman that prior spotting was actually implantation spotting. It can be hard to tell if a woman is pregnant because some of the symptoms seen in early pregnancy can also happen in non-pregnant women. A urine pregnancy test gives a reliable result about 3 weeks after sex (3 weeks after when conception might have occurred), or 1 week after missing a period.

Question 4

i had sex 14 days ago. slight bleeding 10 days before period is due, not even heavy enough for a pad. can i be pregnant?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can be: If you and him are healthy and you had unprotected sex, you may be or will be pregnant.  Consider having a pregnancy test then be safe.  If negative, consult your gynecologist regarding an intrauterine device (IUD) or a subdermal implant which are the most effective methods to prevent an unplanned pregnancy.

10 days before period i began bleeding. two days light one day heavy for a few hours. can it be implantation bleeding or something more serious?

Accepted Answer

wait and if you miss your period, do an in home pregnancy test.If you get your period that means it was not due to implantation and if it recurs get your self checked by your gynecologist.

Question 6

bleeding 2 days before period due

Accepted Answer

Infection: What you described suggests yeast infection. You may try over the counter treatment for vaginal yeast infection. If that does not work, it would be time to see a doctor.
For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. 
Practice safe sex, if you have sex.

light bleeding 5 days before period period came
on time mildly heavy?

One-time episode?: A doctor can check to see if there is any worrisome medical issue, if a woman has mild menstrual-related symptoms. Many women have some variation of their periods or a missed period on occasion. Some women feel normal after a few days, but others do have bothersome symptoms and follow-up with their doctors. Of course, routine pap smear cancer screenings and pelvic exams should not be missed.
