Miss period w/blood: No you should not worry. First you need to find out if you are pregnant. This could be a miscarriage or signs of bleeding associated with an early pregnancy. You may have some other reason for your delayed menses. The brown is likely old blood too. Check a urine pregnancy test and write back if you need too.
