No Periods, Dark Brown Bleeding After Wiping. Negative Pregnancy Test, HSG Test Done. Pregnant?
Hello!! I did a HSG on may 4, 2012 after my period which was april 25. Today is June 2, 2012 and I have not had a period. On May 25 for 3 days I had a very light dark brown bleeding only when I wiped. then on may 31 I had the same thing for a could hours. On June 1, 2012 I took a urine pregnancy test and it was negative. What does all this mean. please help. Getting very discouraged.

hi,
the possible causes of your symptoms are,
-hypomenorrhea: means reduced blood flow during periods,
that can be due to many causes like anemia, stress and strain, weight loss etc which will affect hypothalamo-pituitary-ovarian axis,
-implantation bleeding,
as urine pregnancy test kits are less sensitive during early pregnancy you better go for blood test for pregnancy which can detect low levels of HCG also and thus can rule out the possibility of pregnancy.
take care.
