A member asked:

Missed period by 7days.pregnancy test on day5 is neg.ive brown&dark red watery discharge with cramps, hardness at my pelvic area.what does this mean?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not pregnant: Given that your pregnancy test was negative, it is incredibly unlikely that you are pregnant. Otherwise, the combination of bloody, watery discharge and cramps / hardness in the pelvic area really does require evaluation that would include an exam and cultures for infection. This is very important.
