Can Delayed Periods With Brownish Pink Spotting Mean Pregnancy?
Hi I was previously pregnant and lost the baby3 months ago at 5 months of pregnancy. Two months ago I was having light sporting and my periid skipped. Month I thought I could be pregnant but the rest came back negative. Now about 11-12 days past ovulation in having brownish pink sporting. I just did a pregnancy test and it was negative. My husband and I are trying to conceive. Could this be a pregnancy and mybe I tested too early.
Home pregnancy tests read well when performed 3 to 7 days after the missed period using a fresh early morning sample of urine. The estimation of the serum beta-hCG titers is a good method before the onset of the next period. This is more sensitive and specific. Brownish discharge is suggestive of old blood.
Implantation bleeding is a fresh bleeding seen around the expected period and lasts for a couple of days. A sonogram of the pelvis preferably in the transvaginal route done a week later clarifies the situation.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Shanti Vennam
