Brief Answer:
Can be due to an impending period.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
if the pregnancy test is negative then pregnancy is ruled out. The brown discharge that you are having can be due to an impendng period. This can happen due to stress and mild changes in hormones. The bleeding is likely to gradually increase as pregnancy is ruled out after a negative test.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.
