Is there a difference in the appearance between implantation bleeding, and regular pre-period spotting?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Likely breakthrough: Implantation bleeding is largely an internet myth. If - a big if - you actually get implantation bleed it would be very light and about 6-7 days after ovulation, or about a week before your expected period. So, i wouldn't worry - but spotting before a period does not make it more likely you are pregnant, sorry. Good wishes.
