Ok so I had my period on the 5th of June & it ended on the 7th (regular). Then on the 13th I noticed 2 brown dots in my undies then on the 14th I started spotting blood from time to time. Sunday and Monday it was red & brown. Tuesday & Wednesday it is all brown. I've been looking online and the best answers I have seen was either: pregnancy, miscarriage, or hormonal unbalance. My period is not due until the end of the month, which I want to wait and see if it comes before going to the doctor? What could this be? Should I go to the doctor now or wait as planned?
I also would like to add that I was put on because pills and only took about 5 then stopped. Would this be another reason for the brown bleeding?

The birth control pills could be the reason why you are spotting and having a brownish discharge. This has happened to me before when I stopped taking my birth control. That could be the hormonal umbalance that your research is talking about.
Anytime that you have sex there is a possibility of getting pregnant. So, that is why you use any of the different types of forms of birth control, sometimes more than one. Why did you stop taking your birth control pills if you don't want to get pregnant?
As for whether you are pregnant or not, I am not sure and no one on this site will be able to diagnose you over the internet.
Your best bet would be to go get a home pregnancy test and take it with your mornings urine. If it is negative and you are still worried about it, take another one a few weeks later.
Good luck with everything.

I was taking them and the side effects were crucial i.e. headaches that lasted for hours, excessive vomiting, back and ab pains. I tried to continue on as though thinking my body would adjust but as the days went on it got worse. I have been doing better since being off them and trying to stay safe other ways that won't cause sickness. Thanks a lot for the advice will update on the verdict.

Okay, sounds good. I am sorry about the side effects. My cousin said that she had bad side effects from it too. Please do let us know.
