A member asked:

Can implantation happen 3-4 days after sexual contact and the bleeding is dark brown with bleeding for 3-4days and spotting for 3days after?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unlikely: Implantation of an embryo should not cause several days of "dark brown blood" to come out of one's vagina. Implantation usually happens with no vaginal bleeding at all. If one's normal regular period does not happen each month when due, one can do a home urine pregnancy test. Tests are very accurate 3 weeks after sex.
