Hi had regular periods for 20 years last month missed a period for the first time due on in a week and am having a brown stringy discharge? any advice

Irregular periods: Irregular periods are one of the most common problems Obgyns treat. If this is a one time problem it usually resolves on its own. If this is a recurring problem you should be evaluated. Infections, polyps and hormonal changes can cause spotting. If there is a concern for pregnancy then do a home pregnancy test.
