Unread post by Jasther »

Hi, I understand that I cant post any thread bout pregnancy anxiety. But I would like to ask several possibility that can cause mid cycle spotting to happen on day13-19? Is this consider dangerous for health, or do i need to consult any health care? Thank you for all the replies.

Mid-cycle spotting is common enough there's a long-ago term for it, middleschmerz. Most mid-cycle spotting isn't anything to worry about.

Are you having any other symptoms, like any kind of cramping?

Hi jasther... ovulation is usually around day 14 but there can be some variation.

Thank you Jacob. Because i have some spotting during day 13-21. At first I was quite scared of the spotting thought it would be implantation bleeding. But for 3 times sex (day 5,8,13) I used condom for every genital contact although i have one incident that the condom slip halfway but never slip all the way off from the penis and my partner never even ejaculate any near me or inside me. (So i can assume that the condom did its job?)
Do you mind if i ask for ovulation spotting it can happen for how many days?
And if, if implantation bleeding normally occur on which day? Is it near period time? (Just curious and not to anxious bout pregnancy thing because sometimes google give wrong information)
Thank you

Hi Jasther,

There are no exact answers to many of these questions... they will vary for different people.

Your questions about condom use have already been answered... Please make sure you read through the information we give you, and the answers already given (everything is already there). If you still feel you can't trust your own knowledge on reading on this, I would suggest talking to your partner about stopping some of the activities you are doing if they are causing stress.

Thank you Jacob, I felt it's because I have those spotting and it kept me thinking It must be implantation bleeding and stuff. And I felt so anxious about that.
For the condom, I have had all the answers that you all have told me. And may i ask if some post Scarleteen just replied them with the pregnancy fear and anxiety policy and refuse to give answer, does this mean that the question do not pose any real pregnancy risk and people who ask it normally will not get pregnant? Thank you
