Hi,
Results of a pregnancy test can be fluctuating with false +be tests when a urine sample is contaminated with vaginal bleeding(the brown discharge). False - be is not possible. So your test is - ve. Please confirm with beta HCG testing of the blood to clear the confusion.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
