No: The point of the menstrual cycle is to clear out everything to enable a fertilized egg to implant next month.

A 38-year-old female asked:

I had implantation bleeding (one day of brown spotting) the day before my period was due. Is this a sign that the egg successfully implanted in the uterus and I dont need to worry about ectopic pregnancy? (Unless theres a twin, that is.)
