QuestionI got my period on schedule on June 26-July 1. Then on July 12-13 I had very light bleeding and very dark brown for only about a day and a half. Should I plan on getting my next period 27 days from the July 12-13 dates or should I be counting from the June 26 date? I have had unprotected sex and am wondering if the July bleeding was too early for implantation bleeding or if it was my cycle just "readjusting" itself. If I go by the July 12 date, I should be getting my period on August 7 or 8. Does anyone have any advice?
AnswerHI Jennifer,
the July 12-13 bleeding could very well have been implantation bleeding so you MIGHT not get a period at all!
The dark brown blood= old blood that worked its way out. Red=fresh and new.
if your cycle is usually normal and regular, the July 12-13 exactly corresponds to when you may have conceived and an embryo implanted.
IF you arent pregnant, you'll get a period soon...
good luck! go get yourself a home pregnancy test to have on hand if you dont already and try testing after the 8th.
