If a lady is pregnant, does the implantation bleeding occurs every month just like period but with spots or light flow. or it occurs only once after the implantation occurs?

Q: if a lady is pregnant, does the implantation bleeding occurs every month just like period but with spots or light flow. or it occurs only once after the implantation occurs?

: "Implantation bleeding" is a misnomer. Bleeding often occurs during pregnancy, frequently with no obvious explanation, and indicates an increased miscarriage risk. Bleeding MIGHT occur with implantation but would occur only once since implantation is a one-time event.
