I would say its just spotting due to your going off of the pill. Your period is probably going to be a little goofy for a few months. Implantation bleeding typically happens 3 to 7 days after conception, not the day after. I would keep trying, but I wouldnt get my hopes up completely until your cycle normalizes and ovulation can be better predicted. Once you have your ovulation pin pointed then make sure you are having intercourse the day before, the day of, and the day after ovulation, if not even more. Personally I would throw away the predictor kits for now and just do it alot. I would start out by having sex because it feels good to both you and your partner, and see if you get a bonus in the process!
It mightn't be menstruation or pregnancy, but maybe sex was a little rough?
Besides, even though you did take a break from the pill, it is still common to experience spotting between periods.
Or there could be a problem, but I doubt it.
There - three explanations, but the second seems to be the most feasible.
It may be you bleeding in between periods or could be pregnancy. When did you start taking metformin?
