A member asked:
Light bleeding and cramping 5 days after ovulation is this implantation bleeding? or should i be worried its something else?

It's not likely to : Be from implantation at this point. The embryo is microscopic. Some irregular spotting is no need for concern but, depending on your situation could be a sign of a cervical infection. If in a stable relationship not likely. If trying to get pregnant and having a lot of intercourse it may be vaginal irritation. Of course if you have pain, fever or other symptoms get seen. Gd luck.

Possibly: Implantation bleeding is not common at 5 days post ovulation, but possible. In about a week a pregnancy test will be able to tell you for sure.
