What Does Brown Menstrual Discharge Indicate?

I was supposed to start my period four days ago and brown odorless stuff is coming out and its been that way for two days. I thought I was on my period but it hasn't turned red like it usually does and a lot came out when I wiped. What is it? Am I prego?

Hi,
Thanks for your question.
An unusual amount or color of bleeding may indicate an ongoing pregnancy. So, yes, your concerns may be true. Take a pregnancy test to exclude this possibility. Blood pregnancy test may give more reliable results at this stage of pregnancy.
Please visit a doctor if test is positive as bleeding during pregnancy need evaluation.
Best wishes.
