Are Delayed Menstruation With Brown Blood Spotting Signs Of Pregnancy?

Hie, l missed my period for a week, l did a home pregnancy test and it was a dim positive (the positive control line was deem). So friday and saturday l saw brown blood spotting each time l wiped off using a tissue. l was worried and went to see a doctor who did a scan. The scan said that l had a bulky uterus and thick endometrium , doc said l should come back for a re-scan to see if the pregnancy will be detactable by then. Could l be along my road to pregnancy or not.

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Symptoms what you are experiencing could be due to pregnancy.
Sometimes, urine pregnancy test done during the first week of missing periods might be inconclusive. Hence it would be advisable to wait for a minimum of 10 days to take test as well as confirm it by means of ultrasound scan.
Kindly wait for the time as the doctor has advised and get the scan done after taking urine pregnancy test once again.
Kindly consult Gynecologist with report for clinical evaluation and further management.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
I find this answer helpful
