A member asked:

I started my period on the 19 july then 6th of august i've had light brown spotting for a day my period is irregular could it implantation unsafe sex?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

A person can't tell: Wait. A positive pregnancy test can tell a woman that prior spotting was actually implantation spotting. It can be hard to tell if a woman is pregnant because some of the symptoms seen in early pregnancy can also happen in non-pregnant women. A urine pregnancy test gives a reliable result about 3 weeks after sex (3 weeks after when conception might have occurred), or 1 week after missing a period.
