What Causes Light Menstrual Bleeding Along With Lower Abdominal Pressure?

I was expecting my period to come around nov 16 but instead of period, I had a light brown discharge and it was light pink sometimes. Took a HPT 4 days after late period and came out negative. So i took another HPT a week after and it came out negative as well. Having some lower abdominal pressure ever since. Can I be pregnant? Or is it some other reasons that I should be seeing a doc?

Hi,
I understand your concern
* Twice -ve pregnancy test excludes pregnancy- because false -ve pregnancy test is rarely seen.
You have brown discharge intermittently.I would advise you to get abdominal USG scan- it will reveal the cause.
It can be either missed abortion/ PCOD/ fibroid uterus / premenopause.
some thyroid conditions also produce menstrual problems- Thyroid function tests would help in that case.
* consult a gynecologist , with your physical examination co related to investigation reports he would pin point the cause & offer you specific treatment plan, to cure you.
Thanks.
