Specializes in Internal Medicine

Need pregnancy test: Your unprotected sex came at a time near your expected ovulation, so a small amount of bleeding a few days later could be so called implantation bleeding, which often occurs early in pregnancy. The best thing to do is get a home pregnancy test and find out for sure.
