Brown discharge/previous health issues

Hi everyone!
It's my first time here so please excuse my rambling/lack of lingo!

Period arrive a week early. However, super light and just a brown discharge that lasted 4 days. Cramping the first day and then the brown discharge when I wiped post wee/a couple of smudges on a pantyliner. As of now its stopped. Expressed to my sister who has two lovely kiddies and she is VERY excited as she believes it could be implantiation something or rather. My periods the past 4 months have been regular - arriving on the 22/23rd like clockwork. The brown discharge started on the 16th. I just don't know what to think!

The past year I have recovered from anorexia and also had an operation in Feb to remove cervical cells - my body has been through a lot but as of March my period has been like clockwork.

Could this just be my body doing something funky due to previous health problems? I just assumed I would struggle to conceive (as told by doctors) so my partner and I aren't careful but also aren't actively trying.

Sorry for all the detail but I am going out of my mind. Thanks a million x

It's the next day and the brown discharge has completely stopped altogether, started ebbing off yesterday. According to my app my period is due tomorrow or Saturday so will just hang tight over the weekend.

Is 4 days too long for implantation bleeding? I will take a test after the weekend if my period doesn't arrive.

If anyone has experience with this I'd love some words of wisdom xxxx

Fast forward 5 days and having missed my period on its usual day of the 22nd I caved this morning and took 3 different tests - BFNs across the board.

Still no sign of my period - I know it's only 4 days late but this is strange for me. Typically my skin flares up but I've had 2 people tell me I am 'glowing' which did my yearning for a positive no favours!

If anyone has any advice or just a bit of handholding wise words I'd be so grateful my partner/family think I am potty!
