Can we do pregnancy test after implantation bleeding?

Question

I had some light spotting two days back which i think might be implantation bleeding. So eager to test but dont want a wrong result. Should i wait more or can i check now? anyone been through this?

My doctor said implantation bleeding is very early, and hcg may still be too low to show right then. She suggested waiting a few days after, ideally till around the missed period, for a clear result. Testing immediately after spotting often shows negative even if you are pregnant.

Wait a few days after, then test for accuracy.

Oh so even if I had that light spotting, testing the same day might show negative? Better I wait a few more days then.

Yes you can test, but right after implantation spotting it may still be too early to show. Give it a few days then retest with morning urine. Patience gives the accurate answer.
