What Causes Brown Vaginal Discharge During Pregnancy?

Hello Doctor, I m 5.2 weeks pregnant and having brown discharge since 5 days and noticed small clots since yesterday. I got 2 blood work HCG results done on alternate days. 1st one -450 and 2nd one is 824. I m goging for the 3rd one tomorrow. I had constipation 2 days back and when I cleared my bowels, I have lot of pain. Even when I coughed. That time, I had pain in my left abdomen too. All this lasted till I cleared my bowels. After that I was back to normal. It s been 2 days and I don t have any problems like that but having the brown discharge. It is not like a period but when I wipe I see brown color discharge and also lately more on the pad. Am I having a miscarriage or an ectopic pregnancy or is everything ok. I have not had any scans till now. Please advise. Thanks Lakshmi

you should get scan done to determine the status of intrauterine pathology.
Sometime brown discharge can occur due to disruption of pregnancy sac .
