Question"I am a regular 28 cycle each month, on day 11 I started my ovulation sticks, the first day the line was there but not as dark as control line and each day since has got lighter, I am now having a brownish discharge for the last 3 days ? what is this? could it be I ovulated early and missed it ?";
AnswerIf you have a 28 day cycle, you will ovulate, most likely, around cycle day #14. Usually, if you did indeed conceive on cycle day #13, 14, 15, or 16, implantation bleeding occurs 8 days later. The brownish discharge is most likely due to mid-cycle staining or ovulatory bleeding. As long as the line is noted (with the control) you have to assume that you had an LH surge and did, indeed, ovulate. The only time you can conceive is if you have sex on the day prior to ovulation and up to two days after ovulation.
