Hello Breyana, and Welcome to HealthcareMagic Forum!
The brownish line is called linea nigra and is quite suggestive of pregnancy. It can also be due to polycystic ovary and hormonal imbalance. You can consult a gynecologist and get an ultrasound through vaginal route. This will pick up a pregnancy and also cysts in ovaries. Hope this helps. Take care!
