Can you tell us more information? If not, here is what I can tell you from your brief description:
Information that would be helpful from you:
- What type of bleeding did you experience on Oct. 10th? Implantation bleeding should actually be called "spotting", as it is merely a spot of blood on toilet paper or underwear, and goes unnoticed by most women. If your bleeding was more substantial, it could have been withdrawal bleeding from the hormones being removed, and your first menstrual period may not occur until 21-35 days after Oct 10th.
- When was the last time you took a home pregnancy test?
- How long had you been using an IUD, and did your doctor talk with you about your periods being irregular for a few months after its removal?
If you took a pregnancy test yesterday, then you can wait another week. No need to take multiple pregnancy tests daily (if that's what you are asking??). Ideally, you may also want to wait to see if you get a period 21-35 days after your October 10th bleeding date.
Your periods may be irregular for a few months (which means your ovulation will be irregular and unpredictable), and this is why I provided the information previously. No one can tell you "when" to take a test, as your periods may be irregular for a while. What you can do: take one test a week if you feel the need to (or wait up to around November 13th for a possible period) and track your symptoms (all of the symptoms you mentioned can be hormone-related...either due to an upcoming period or pregnancy, although it is too early for pregnancy symptoms).
Do you know how to track for symptoms of ovulation, since you are trying to conceive? We can provide this information, if you are interested!
