Brief Answer:
Test your urine first.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
The brownish discharge can be due to several things. Maybe your next period has set in or we are probably looking at an abortion ( we'll have to confirm a pregnancy for that) or it could be just due to some local trauma or an ectopic preganncy.
The other symptoms could be due to pregnancy or due to just a premenstrual phase.
Here's what you should be doing in this order
a. Please do a urine pregnancy test at home and see a gynecologist and get a serum beta hCG done for yourself. This is a blood test and will pick up the pregnancy sooner.
If this is positive, I would suggest that a transvaginal ultrasound scan be done to find the cause.
b. If you do get your period, it could be due to the beginning of your next period or due to local trauma ( which may be sustained during intercourse).
Do go to emergency if the pregnancy test comes a positive.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
