Fibroid Discharge
Am I still pregnant? Doctor says yes--- then clotting, and now two negative home pregnancy tests... ?
I missed my period... start feeling tired, bloated, with tender breasts. I took two home pregnancy tests which come back positive.
Dark brown discharge two days later--so I go to hospital. After blood tests and ultrasound, the ER doc tells me HCG levels are low and I may be miscarrying. They also discover a large fibroid in uterus.
Three days later I go to my first ob-gyn visit-- she says she sees what looks like gestational sac and small white pulsating line. Says I am probably fine-- just early in pregnancy (possibly 5-6 weeks).
I've been bleeding lightly last 3 days-- except for pink/brown stringy discharge.. with small clumps.
I have taken two more blood tests since my visit to ob-gyn... and both came back negative. Does this mean I miscarried, despite what my ob-gyn saw in the ultrasound? Why would two tests come back negative?
ooops... I meant to write I've taken two URINE home tests in last few days and they both came back negative.
Thanks for your help 
You really need to talk to your OBGYN, but yes, it sounds like you've miscarried. If the blood tests have come back negative, that means your HCG levels have gone below 5.
ETA: 2 negative blood tests or urine tests? It may make all the difference as they have different levels of detection. If you're talking about urine tests, you need to get another blood test to determine the condition of this pregnancy. It's possible that your HCG levels are still to low to detect on an HPT, but doubling as they should......seriously, call your OBGYN first thing in the morning and talk to the nurse.
I'm really sorry (if you've miscarried). I had a miscarriage a couple years ago, I know how heartbreaking it can be.
Spotting and Pain during Pregnancy
Unfortunately not all pregnancies are smooth sailing. There are many women each year who experience particularly difficult pregnancies. These women will have vaginal pain and experience a spotting pregnancy. These are cases that need to be under the care of a physician. This is really the only way to ensure a safe pregnancy and future delivery.
Experiencing vaginal pain, or having a spotting pregnancy can be particularly difficult. This is true not only for the expectant mother, but her unborn child, as well. There are various reasons, for experiencing either of these issues. Some of these reasons, can be quite serious and should be addressed quickly.
Individually, both vaginal pain, and spotting while pregnant, can be signs of more serious conditions. Vaginal pain, itself can be caused by many different things. This type of pain can be connected to a woman’s having vaginitis or a yeast infection. Both of these have similar uncomfortable symptoms. Women, with either vaginitis or yeast infection, experience itching or burning, of the vaginal area.
Expectant mothers need extra care, when comes to vaginitis and yeast infection. Either could be the cause for a vaginal pain, or the cause of spotting pregnancy experiences. In these cases, a woman would notice that her vagina is inflamed, and could be red. A simple doctor’s visit could relieve this symptom.
Doctors often prescribe topical creams to combat the itching and burning of the vaginal area. These creams are easily applied to the effected area, and can give relief quickly. Pain in the vaginal area, often goes hand and hand with discharge. Women regularly see a discharge from the vagina, in these scenarios. These discharges can come in various colors, and sometime have an unpleasant odor.
Pregnant women, who are experiencing these, should pay close attention to them. This is important to not only not if they worsen, but change in odor. Generally your doctor will want to know some specifics about what you’ve noticed by way of discharge. Women who are noticing pain, must monitor their symptoms. This is even more crucial when a woman is pregnant.
If for some reason the spotting turns into full on bleeding, medical attention should be sought quickly. Vaginal pain, does not only mean that there could be a problem with your baby. In some instances, this type of pregnancy is related to a greater condition. Whatever the condition is, it may be unknown to both mother and her doctor. If this is true, tests will need to be run for a proper diagnosis.
One such condition, is the existence of fibroid tumors. These tumors have been known to cause extreme pain, in women who are not pregnant. So for those who are, the symptoms can be even worse. In some women, the cause for this type of pregnancy will be polyps, or even cancer. In these cases, pregnancy becomes more difficult, if not risky. It’s very important to watch all abnormal feelings or sensations while you’re pregnant. Even though some reasons will be normal and pose no danger, there are reasons, that could.
