Q: Implantation Bleeding Vs. Period?

If you have implantation bleeding around the same time your period would come, how do you know if you missed a period or not? I've heard of implantation bleeding. What does it look like and do all women have it and when does it occur? Please help!

Implantation Bleeding Vs. Period

Implantation bleeding is not as heavy as a normal period. It is usually a light pinkish color or a dark brown and just a few drops. Not enough to fill a pad or tampon.
