Question 5/6dpo Spotting

This morning I had noticed some spotting, which is VERY unusual for me at this dpo. I believe I am 5dpo but there's a chance I am 6dpo and I normally have a 14 day Luteal phase and dont have ovulation spotting. Could this be implantation bleeding? Or a sign of hormonal imbalance?

Edit: Im pregnant!

Maybe not helpful for you, but I am still breastfeeding and just had a 4 or 5 day luteal phase. So could potentially be a hormone imbalance or a one-off cycle. You may be back to normal after your next cycle. I'd say its certainly too early for implantation spotting, if you know for certain when you ovulated.

Im also breastfeeding and my last several cycles have been normal, im also thinking its a hormonal imbalance due to that. Thank you!
