Menses: The brownish discharge is likely old blood being cleaned from the uterus. Break through bleeding or an early period may be related to hormone imbalances for a number of different reasons.

Do Home preg test: Start off with a home pregnancy test, if positive see your Dr asap. Infections of the cervix, missed contraceptive pills, and hormonal imbalances can be other causes.
