A member asked:

I'm 40 years old 6 weeks pregnant and experiencing brown discharge when i urinate. no cramping or anything. should i worry?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Six week pregnancy ?: A "brown discharge" is just bleeding which has oxidized. At six weeks of pregnancy, this may be due to sub-normal production of progesterone by the ovary. See your OB for an exam and both a serum quantitative HCG and a pelvic sonogram to determine the cause.
