What Causes Brown Discharge In Periods?

Hello, I was on the Microgynon 30 for the last 4 years. My last date that i was on my period was 07/10/2010. As soon as i finished i was due to start my pill again on the 08/10, however i did not take it again untill the 14 + 15/10/2010 just for two days.. I was intermite on the 15th & 17 + 18th October without taking the pill. I was due on my period on the 31/10/2010. On the monday 18th I felt symptons of Back Ache, feeling sick and little cramps. On the 25th October i got a little bit of spotting which was red. Then it stopped overnight and came again for a couple of hours in the morning. I then had like a period but was very brown and only lasted 3 days... I have been feeling very tired and dont know if it is just me thinking im pregnant.. I have tried 4 prg tests before the so called period and all neg... Dont know weather to try again... Please help.

Hi, I have gone through your question, and I think I have understood your concern. I will suggest you the best possible treatment options.

1 ) As you had unprotected sex in this period, there is risk of being pregnant. But I will suggest that you get the urine pregnancy test done Only after your expected date of the cycle.

2 ) doing the tests before the expected date will not give proper results. I will suggest you to get urine test done 15 days after the last sex act which was on 18th.

I hope this answer helps you. Thanks
