Difference between implantation bleeding and periods? - March 8th 2012, 01:09 PM
What is the difference between implantation bleeding (resulting from pregnancy) and periods?

I read that a lot of people confuse implantation bleeding (which means the girl is pregnant) with periods (which means the girl is NOT pregnant).

So how can I know for sure if my girlfriend is pregnant or if she is having periods which means she is not pregnant? Her periods were supposed to start on 9th Mar but very light bleeding started today (8th Mar).

Also, I have not told her that there MAY BE a possibility that she could be pregnant because then she would have started worrying and from what I read worrying can be a cause of a missed period.

Usually, she gets pain in her legs and abdomen which tells her that periods are coming but this time she didnt feel any pain except for pain in her legs for less than hour on this past Tuesday night.
