Should I Be Concerned Over A Brown Discharge At 5.6 Weeks Of Pregnancy?

Hi. I am 5 wks 6 days pregnant. I just had some brown discharge after a bowel movement and am wondering if I should be concerned? I am unusually tired during this pregnancy (have 2 other children) and did have bright red spotting one time with one of my other pregnancies.

Hi, thanks for writing..
Minimal bleeding at and around the expected period can be implantation bleeding. Since you have bleeding at 6 weeks, get a scan done to see gestational sac, fetal pole and cardiac activity. See also for subchorionic hemorrhage. It that is present, take progesterone injection and progesterone tablet for supporting the pregnancy. Hope I have answered your query. Feel free to ask any doubts through http://doctor.healthcaremagic.com/doctors/dr-dalia-muraleedharan/68596. Good day
