What is implantation bleeding?

With the continuous progress of modern life, people's material life has been continuously improved. It has now reached a fairly high level and is still developing. However, this high level of life has also brought some problems, that is, people's physical fitness is getting worse and worse, causing the emergence of many diseases, especially the emergence of gynecological diseases, which has brought many blows to women. For example, the phenomenon of implantation bleeding is a great harm to the body. Let's take a look at the introduction below.

Implantation bleeding occurs when the blastocyst (the ball of cells before the embryo forms) implants into the uterine lining, causing irritation and movement of the uterine lining, so you may notice spots of blood in your shorts, and you may even experience mild cramping or soreness. This happens around 4 weeks of pregnancy, which is why many expectant mothers sometimes mistake it for menstruation.

What are the symptoms of implantation bleeding: The color of the blood spots is not red, but brown or black, because the blood is not fresh. It will be lighter than a normal menstrual cycle bleeding and should occur a week before your period. If your blood turns dark red or becomes thick, report it to your midwife or doctor right away.

How long does implantation bleeding last: The bleeding should only last a day or two, but every woman is different. Occasionally, expectant mothers will experience bleeding in the first one or two months of pregnancy, so if there is a similar bleeding during implantation, a pregnancy test should be done. If bleeding is accompanied by pain or is particularly uncomfortable, medical advice should be sought.

The above is an explanation of implantation bleeding. I hope women can understand that this phenomenon is a huge blow to women’s bodies and can cause some serious consequences, causing serious damage to women’s bodies. Therefore, women should maintain healthy living habits in their lives and make their bodies stronger.
