I have recently had unprotected sex a week before my period. I am 2 days late on my period. Today I noticed a brown discharge when I went to the bathroom. I did some research and found out its an early sign of pregnancy. Could it be or am I just freaking out?
Brown discharge CAN be one of the early signs of pregnancy because it might be a so-called implantation bleeding. This kind of bleeding happens when the embryo nestles itself into the lining of your uterus, and a bit of blood comes out in the process. This doesn't happen to every woman who just got pregnant.
An implantation bleeding is usually light spotting, old blood so it's brown, and it doesn't last more than a day or two. You won't usually even need to wear a pad, as the bleeding is lighter than that.
Since you're already two days late, I say, take a pregnancy test!
