Heavy 4-5 Day Bleeding on Expected Period Day: Likely Menstruation, Not Implantation
Implantation bleeding is typically:
- Light (spotting), pink/brown.
- Brief (hours to 1–2 days).
- Timing: 6–12 DPO (before expected period).
Heavy, red, 4–5 day bleeding on schedule = menstruation.
Why Confusion Arises
- Early pregnancy bleeding (subchorionic hematoma, cervical) can mimic period.
- Hormonal fluctuation can alter flow.
Definitive Answer
Quantitative serum β-hCG. If negative → not pregnant. If positive + bleeding → evaluate for viability/ectopic.
