When does implantation spotting occur?

Answer by  tjh1234 (362)

A small amount of implantation spotting may occur when a fertilised egg attaches itself to the uterus lining. Spotting is likely to occur before the next menstrual period is due, at around 6 to 12 days after ovulation or 2 to 8 days before you expect your next mentrual period to begin.

It does not always occur, but when it does it is typically about two weeks post conception. A normal cycle usually results in ovulation about two weeks after menstruation, this means that for many women implantation bleeding occurs at the same time the next period is expected.

This usually occurs in the firs trimester. Most often in the first month or so. Not all females experience spotting, but many do during the first few weeks. It is nothign to be concerned with.

Implantation spotting, or bleeding normally appears about a month, or four weeks after conception, and it will not be as heavy as a typical period.

Answer by  sagasrikanth (54)

Implantation bleeding normally occurs a week to a few days before your period would normally start. Spotting that occurs around a week after ovulation is likely implantation bleeding; whereas, spotting that occurs very close to the time that your period would normally start may not be.

This actually occurs right before your menstrual cycle is about to begin. This is when an egg is released and if it meets up with sperm the egg starts is normal way to the uterus.
