HCG doubles well but produces brown discharge

The doubling of hCG is good, but the appearance of brown discharge may be due to normal implantation bleeding, or may be related to factors such as threatened miscarriage and cervical lesions. It is recommended to combine ultrasound examination with comprehensive evaluation of progesterone levels, avoid vigorous exercise, and follow medical advice for monitoring. During the process of embryo implantation, some pregnant women may experience a small amount of endometrial shedding, manifested as brown discharge, usually without abdominal pain and normal hCG growth. This situation often occurs between 5-8 weeks of pregnancy, with low secretion and short duration, and is a physiological phenomenon. Keep the external genitalia clean and dry, avoid sexual intercourse and heavy physical labor, most of which can relieve on their own.

Continuous or excessive brown discharge should be alert to pathological factors. Threatened miscarriage in early pregnancy may result in normal hCG but insufficient progesterone, accompanied by a feeling of lower abdominal heaviness. Cervical polyps, cervicitis and other lesions are prone to contact bleeding under hormonal changes. Early ectopic pregnancy may also present with similar symptoms, which need to be ruled out through ultrasound. If the secretion turns bright red or accompanied by tissue discharge, seek medical attention immediately. When pregnant women experience brown discharge, they should record the amount of bleeding, color changes, and accompanying symptoms, and avoid using sanitary tampons. Wash the perineum with warm water daily and choose breathable cotton underwear. Add dark vegetables such as spinach and broccoli that are rich in vitamin K to your diet, and supplement high-quality protein such as eggs and fish. Maintain emotional stability, avoid prolonged standing or walking, and use a left lateral position during sleep to improve pelvic blood circulation. It is recommended to recheck hCG and progesterone levels weekly, and if necessary, perform ultrasound examination to clarify the embryonic development status.
