Hi,
If you wish to confirm/exclude pregnancy now, the urine test is not ideal; you should get the serum beta-hCG levels measured as this is more sensitive and specific. If you do not see your normal period as you should, please go ahead with a trans-vaginal sonogram 3-4 days after the missed period. If pregnancy test is positive, the discharge could be due to implantation. Hope your query has been clarified. Wish you good health.
