Is The Discharge With Cramping And Nausea Be Due To A Pregnancy?
I am supposed to get my period in the next 4 days. Yesterday I noticed a very faint pink discharge which then turned into dark brown discharge. I was cramping, but not as much as a period. Today, there was still a little bit of brown discharge and now it looks like lighter blood, but not thick, almost watery and not heavy; usually when my period comes it starts heavy. I took a pregnancy test and it came back negative but I have been nauseous for the past week. Could I be pregnant?

Hello Ma'am,
The symptoms you report may point towards pregnancy but can be confirmed only through tests.
Urine pregnancy tests are usually positive AFTER two days of missed periods and may often be falsely negative when done earlier.
Opt for serum beta HCG to confirm your pregnancy.It is a blood test and values more than 25 confirms pregnancy and values less than 5 rules out pregnancy.
Hope this helps
