Please give me some advice

I started my first cycle on March 25th, I made all of my necessary appointments as requested. I started taking Follistim on that day 75IU's 1 shot per day. I was inseminated on April 3rd and again on April 4th. Over that weekend I ovulated (my doc told me on monday). Then the wait began. I was given 1 HCG trigger shot on April 3rd after IUI. My doctor has me on Progesterone Suppositories and Lovenox Injections. Yesterday I started seeing brown discharge I cried I took a HPT and it was negative (I cried some more). Usually my period just comes no spotting no cramps, no nothing but now I have this discharge. It resembles way back when I used to take Birth Control Pills for the first time except this is lighter. Today the same Brown Discharge. But if this is day 2 of my period I should be on my heaviest and I should be in a very bad mood. I am confused!!!! I wanted to know could this be from using the Progesterone (making my hormones unbalanced?) or is this my period changing? or Implantation Bleeding? I hope it is!!!!! But I really shouldn't hope because for over 5 years I have done lots of hoping and the ball is never in my court.
Please HELP!!!!!

That would put you 12-13dpo, depending on whether o was Sat or Sun. It could still be too early to tell on an hpt.

Progesterone suppositories can irritate the cervix and cause spotting. It may be from them. A couple more days will tell for sure. I hope it's good news. The waiting is terrible.

I am sorry you have to go through all that.  It's happen with me last cycle.  I do not have heavy period.  First day i have dark brown spotted, second little red spotted, then next day is gone.  did HPT and got negative.  

What is your cycle?  My first day cycle was also march 25th.  I have 30 cycle days so I ovulated between April 7 - 10.  I was on clomid 150mg along follistim 75IU injection on CD3, 5, 7 and 9.  Today is my CD25. 10DPO and I do not have any symtoms except bbs sore.   AF should visit me next THursday 4/24.

Wait couple more day to see if spotting still there.  If not,  take HPT again and also ask your doctor if you can have blood work to see if you are pregnant or not.  

good luck
