What Does Brown Discharge Before Periods Imply?

I had brown gummy discharge 3 days before expected period....no need to use tampons only pantiliners. It started Wednesday evening was over friday. No discharge overnight pantiliners was dry. No red blood or period either. Still have some light cramping could it have been implantation since the discharge was a dark brown with no red blood ?

Hello,

Implantation Bleeding usually occurs around your period and dark black color spotting, you can go for home urine pregnancy test to rule out pregnancy. It could be due to hormonal imbalance also.

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