Hi
Light brown vaginal discharge can indicate an impending miscarriage since the heart beat cannot be located. Hcg levels can be taken and failure of hcg levels to increase and double every 24 to 48 hours or fall in hcg levels can indicate miscarriage.A repeat scan should be taken to check the viability of the fetus based on which the treatment will be decided.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
