Hi
Dr. Purushottam welcomes you to HCM virtual clinic!
Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully gone through your query, and I think I have understood your concern. I will try to address your medical concerns and would suggest you the best of the available treatment options.

Please do not worry.

If you have regular menses, then negative pregnancy test rules out pregnancy. The brown discoloration need not be the sign of pregnancy. It can be due to some hormonal changes.

In case of doubt, blood beta HCG test and USG will be of help.

I hope my answer helps you.
Thanks.
Wish you great health.
