Is implantation bleeding normal?

Implantation bleeding of the fertilized egg is likely to occur six days after fertilization, because most mothers do not have obvious reactions at this time. Some women will bleed red or pink blood, which is called implantation bleeding of the fertilized egg.

1. The implantation of the fertilized egg occurs about 6 days after fertilization. At this time, most mothers do not have any particularly obvious reaction. A few women will have some red or pink blood, which is called implantation bleeding. Not everyone experiences this symptom, so it is not an obvious sign of pregnancy.

2. Implantation bleeding occurs about 7 days after conception. If it is 7 to 10 days away from ovulation, implantation can be suspected and you can go to the hospital for examination. If it is more than 12 days away from ovulation, it may be menstruation.

3. Normally there will be no bleeding when the fertilized egg implants. If the woman happens to ovulate during intercourse and the man's sperm is well motile, conception can usually occur within 24-48 hours. The woman will not feel anything during implantation. Only a small number of people will bleed a small amount when the fertilized egg implants due to physiological and physical problems. Implantation bleeding is a type of dysfunctional uterine bleeding (dysfunctional uterine bleeding). Since an ovarian follicle gradually develops and matures in every menstrual cycle of women of childbearing age, the estrogen level in the body also gradually increases. When the mature follicle ruptures and ovulates, the estrogen level in the body will drop sharply, making it impossible to maintain the growth of the endometrium, causing local necrosis and exfoliation of the endometrium and manifesting as vaginal bleeding. After ovulation, the follicle quickly forms a corpus luteum, which can secrete a certain amount of estrogen and progesterone to quickly repair the ruptured endometrium, and the bleeding will stop automatically.

Practical impact

4. After conception, some pregnant women will still have a small amount of menstrual-like bleeding in that month, generally without other accompanying symptoms (such as abdominal pain, menstrual discomfort). This may just be a physiological response to the implantation of the fertilized egg. This condition does not require treatment, just keep it clean and it will not affect the development of the embryo.
