Hello dear
I understand your concern
Withdrawal method is not highly successful in preventing pregnancy.
Precum may enter into vagina unknowingly before ejaculation and it may contain sufficient sperm concentration that cause pregnancy.
Slight brown bleeding could be due to implantation bleeding.
I would suggest to wait for period. If period will delay by more than 7 days then go for urine pregnancy test and or blood HCG test to confirm pregnancy.
Pregnancy test will give positive result once your period will delay by more than 7 days. You did test very early and it has high chance of false negative test.
Meanwhile avoid stress, take healthy diet, drink plenty of water, maintain proper pelvic hygiene.
Hope this may help you
