What Causes Pink Spotting And Light Brown Mucus?

I have had the paragard IUD for two years now and I have always been very regular. My last period was a week early and only lasted 4 days compared to 7 and now a month later I experienced light pink spotting that is now light brown mucus. My period isn t due for a couple of weeks though and I have been having some symptoms that I feel could possibly be pregnancy. Is this possible? Also I noticed a few months ago that I felt a poking sensation from it

Hi
Dr. Purushottam welcomes you to HCM virtual clinic!
Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully gone through your case, and I think I have understood your concern. I will try to address your medical concerns and would suggest you the best of the available treatment options.
1] Firstly do not panic.
2] It's ok to have period for 4 days. And if you have not crossed your date, chances of having pregnancy are almost nil.
3] Brown discharge can be due to hormonal disturbance, or erosion of cervix- small wound on the mouth of womb.
4] It needs to be confirmed by doing gynec check up.
5]If you miss your period please do urine test on morning's first sample of urine.
I hope my answer helps you.
Thanks.
Wish you great health.
