HELLO THERE.

YES IT COULD BE A MISCARRIAGE OR A RISK OF MISCARRIAGE.
THESE PRESENT WITH ABDOMINAL PAIN, BLEEDING IN THE FORM OF SPOTTING, BROWN DISCHARGE OR FRANK RED BLEEDING.

THE OTHER POSSIBILITY CAN BE AN ECTOPIC PREGNANCY. THIS IS WHEN PREGNANCY DOES NOT OCCUR IN UTERUS BUT ELSEWHERE OUTSIDE THE UTERUS EITHER IN TUBES OR OVARIES.
THIS KIND OF PREGNANCY PRESENTS WITH VAGINAL BLEEDING, SPOTTING, ABDOMINAL PAIN, FAINTING ATTACKS.

YOU NEED TO GET AN ULTRASOUND WHICH WILL HELP RULE OUT BOTH THESE POSSIBILITIES.
THOUGH IT IS DIFFICULT TO LOCALIZE PREGNANCY ON ULTRASOUND SO EARLY BUT A TRANSVAGINAL ULTRASOUND WOULD HELP.

KINDLY CONSULT A GYNECOLOGIST SOON.

TAKE CARE.
