Hi,

The stringy brown-pink menses around date of periods (while the periods are otherwise normal) could be implantation bleeding with possibility of conception. Please repeat home pregnancy test after 8 days of expected date of periods (may be next week).

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Vasudha Jayant Athavale, General & Family Physician
