How do I distinguish implantaton bleeding from my period?

By Elena Izquierdo Trechera M.D., M.Sc. (gynecologist).
Last Update: 07/13/2022

Post-implantation bleeding usually occurs a few days after the embryo transfer and is usually vaginal bleeding of a smaller amount than a menstrual period.

In case of unsuccessful treatment, menstruation occurs at least one week after the embryo transfer and the amount of bleeding is greater.
