Hi
Welcome to HCM.
I think I have understood your concern.

If urine test is negative then it is of course your periods.
The variation in color and amount can be due to minor hormonal changes.

I will suggest to adopt a healthy diet and regular exercise regime.
Start on B 12, FOLIC ACID supplements at least 3 months before you plan to get pregnancy.

I hope this answer helps you.
Thanks
