Unusual Bleeding?

Question

Normally I have a pretty regular period. However this month's was a unusual. It was about 10 days before I am normally supposed to start. It began last Wednesday with some reddish-brown spotting, not heavy, but enough for maybe a Lightdays pad. Okay by that night it had slacked off, and was only when I wiped. The next few days I had only light pink spotting, with some cramping. By Sunday night I had some heavier spotting with a couple of mid-size clots, but no cramping. As of today I am having some light pink spotting still but no cramping. I have a dr. appointment set up but she can't see me until next week. Has anyone experienced this or something similar? A pregnant friend of mine said this sounded like implantation bleeding. This started about 3 days after having unprotected sex. What do you ladies think? Serious answers only please. And no, I am not a teenager asking this, I'm 27 and boyfriend is 30, so we are old enough to handle a baby if I find out that's the case. Thanks!

Also i'm not asking this seeking a diagnosis on here, that's the reason I have the dr appt. I just was curious if any other women had experienced this or something similar so I might have an idea of what to expect when I go.
I should also add that I am not on any type of birth control.

Answer 1

Implantation bleeding does not consist of cramping and passing clots. Also, it usually does not go for more than a couple of days. I would guess you may be having a really early miscarriage, or your period is just way off this month which can happen due to a variety of things.

Answer 2

Well the problem is probably because you are taking birth control pills.

Answer 3

definately sounds like implatation bellding. how long before you are due to have your period? i suggest an early home preg test
