A member asked:

Is there a possibility that implantation bleeding can be heavy, not heavy like a period though. and last for 3 days only 1 week before expected due?

Non cyclic bleeding: Possible only positive pregnancy test would confirm if that was early menses or implantation bleeding.

Implantation: implantation bleeding is much more common on the internet than in real life. It occurs rarely and exclusively in someone who is pregnant. The only way to know if someone had implantation bleeding or just irregular menstrual bleeding is to wait and see if you are pregnant. If your test is positive then this was implantation bleeding. If it is negative then it is just irregular menstrual bleeding.
