After cohabitation, bleeding 15 days later is it menstruation or implantation bleeding?

Patient's question:

I am 23 years old. If I have intercourse on the day of ovulation and experience bleeding on the 15th day after intercourse, is it implantation bleeding or a normal menstrual period? The bleeding lasted for about seven days, similar to a menstrual period. I want to confirm whether these seven days of bleeding are a menstrual period.

Doctor's answer:

It is recommended to use a pregnancy test kit or blood test to check hCG and progesterone 15 days after sexual activity or 7 days after a delayed period to see if there are values below the normal range. If the values are significantly higher than normal, it is likely that you are pregnant. After confirming pregnancy, rest more and avoid overexertion. Schedule follow-up check-ups as needed. I wish you good health!
It is suggested that you can go to the hospital for a check-up. If that is not convenient, you can first use a test kit for preliminary testing. I hope my explanation helps you. Thank you!
