A member asked:

Dr. Gerard Honore answered

Specializes in Fertility Medicine

Breakthrough: It's probably breakthrough bleeding. 'implantation bleeding' is all the rage online now, but it's over-rated in importance. It's not consistent and is usually not 'implantation' but breakthrough bleeding. Good wishes and best of luck.
