Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried it might affect fertility, and I also feel extremely cold and afraid of the cold. Did you experience implantation bleeding?Doctor's answer:
After conception, some pregnant women may experience a small amount of menstrual-like bleeding in the same month, usually without other accompanying symptoms (such as abdominal pain or discomfort during menstruation). This may simply be a physiological response to implantation of the fertilized egg. No treatment is needed for this condition. There are many methods of contraception available, and you can choose to take birth control pills, have an intrauterine device (IUD) or vaginal ring placed, or opt for subdermal implantation or the safe period method for contraception.
