I've got the exact same symptoms and I've been to see my GP earlier this week who wants me to wait another 2 weeks to see if my period will start as normal. I've not been very sexually active this month and all pregnancy tests I've done have been negative but I've developed a moderate to severe back ache which seem to only go away when I massage the area, painkillers don't seem to work. I've got slight brown discharge which seems to come when I feel worked up, tense or stressed? It's really odd and I would like to know what this may be?

Hello, maybe you could see a doctor it doesn't hurt. However i have had the same "problem" and it is just basically old blood, and im on the pill as well.

Hello, welcome to Healthcaremagic. You need to provide more information about your condition. You could be suffering from a sexually transmitted disease which needs to be thoroughly worked out. You must visit your gynecologist who would send your discharge swab for tests and prescribe medicines accordingly. Wish you good health.
