Yeast Infections And Menses

Spotting for 1 week before period?

I had a yeast infection last week and used 1 Day treatment and it seemed to be clearing up. I had sex a few days later (i don’t think it was done clearing up). The next day, I started spotting bright red. I was exactly 1 week for my period was supposed to start. I am still spotting 3 days later. It seems to smell more like blood than menses. The yeast infection has seemed to clear because there is no irritation. I am not experiencing any cramps or pain. Could I really just be spotting before a period or in the extreme case, can this be implantation spotting for multiple days (spotting started 9DPO).
FYI
I easily bleed alot during sex sometimes. My GYN has checked me and told me I was fine and I have a sensitive cervix. but the bleeding always stopped the next day.
I am not on birth control. I had my doctor check for Clamydia and Gonnorea when I went in after the first time I bled alot during intercourse. it was negative and so was the Pap smear.

Well several factors you should mention or have not.

Are you on birth control of any sort>? I am going to assume that is not the case since you mentioned implantation and you didn’t mention that you practice safe sex. The best thing to do is get a pregnancy test. If it comes up negative then it can be irratation from the meds and then imediatly have intercourse afterwards…you are basically beating up your service. Your best bet is to see a doctor to eliminate other probable causes.
