Hello!
I have a question that's bugging me as I am in the midst of a very real pregnancy scare.
I wanted to know if it's possible to have decidual bleeding 5 or 6 days after unprotected sex? And would implantation bleeding happen before decidual bleeding?

My periods are irregular due to having taken out the iud from my arm about 5 months ago.
I didn't have a period for 2 months, had the unprotected sex, and 5 days later got what I thought was my period. But it seemed like a normal period in intensity and flow except that it had some dark dryish clots in the beginning and towards the end. It lasted for 6 days. (sorry for tmi)
Anyway thank you for reading and I'm so sorry if this falls under the category of things you won't answer
I have taken 3 hpt's 21 days since the risk, all negative..
