Done Beta HCG Test. Brown Discharge After Period. Miscarriage Or Ectopic Pregnancy?
Hi. I got my Beta HCG level as 412 mIU/ML. I am probably already pregnant for about 40 days. However, in between, I got my period, a little lighter than usual, but there s brown discharge after the 2days of period and last for another a week. I am very concerned this may be a sign of miscarrige or ectopic pregnancy . Could you tell me how much chance this could be a normal pregnancy?

Hi,
Thanks for the query.
Some women can have bleeding on their expected date of periods even being pregnant also.
If you are having associated pain abdomen, continuous spotting etc, then there is possibility of miscarriage or ectopic pregnancy.
If you are not having any of these features no need to worry.
You can go for one ultrasound which will clarify these doubts.
Take care.
