Implantation blood or period blood ?
I got my periods one week before and I am bleeding again since yesterday. The flow is not like spotting but a continuous flow, however it's not a very heavy flow. I did get a home pregnancy test done which shows negative. My doctor suggested to get a HCG blood test done but I am scared of needles. What should I do ?

First of all are u sure there is no chance of pregnancy? Are u facing this problem for first time in ur life?
If yes then You can repeat the urine pregnancy test with early morning urine sample
So now if u are afraid of needle then u can go for ultrasonography pelvis first. But sorry to say u might need needle prick for further evaluation .

If the home pregnancy test is negative
it's unlikely that your pregnant but then you would require investigations to find out the reason for this abnormal bleeding
At age 25 it's time you got rid of your phobia of needles and proceed with the investigations required
