Trying to get pregnant. Noticed brownish discharge on and off for few days. Implantation bleeding?
Patient: hi I have been trying to get pregnant and my LMP was 5/26/13 and normally I have regular periods and I was supposed to have my period come on the 26th, however on the 20th I had bleeding which was pink to dark pink lasting few hours with brownish discharge on and off for few days and nothing now. I was wondering if this could be implantation bleeding or what. Doctor: Hello,First of all, you need to undergo one blood test for beta-hCG and TVS scan to rule out implantation bleeding. Other reasons are pelvic/ vaginal infection, old endometrial tissue, hormonal imbalance, uterine pathology etc.Following initial test reports, you consult with gynecologist to proceed next line investigation after clinical examination. Take suggestive measures accordingly.Maintain genital hygiene properly. Take healthy diet with folic acid supplement.Good luck.
