what could be causing this? could I be pregnant or is it potentially something else?

My last period was dec.30,2013. On jan.24 I started brown spotting it lasted 2-1/2 days it was accompanied by severe headaches, thirst, diahrhea, and constipation also some slight cramps. The symtoms lasted a week and a half and then were gone. I took 3 HPT and all were negative. I took one feb.4, feb.7, feb.8. On feb.9 I went to bathroom to make bowel movement and a while later noticed 2 bright red spot of blood in underwear so thought was period coming on and placed a tampon, only to find out sometime later that very light amount of brown blood and all bleeding has stopped again as of that night. Could I be pregnant or is this something else?

Hi!
If you were my patient, I would recommend doing a pregnancy test.  If you are not pregnant, then it may simply be that you didn't ovulate this month and that is the reason for the unusual pattern.
If your hpt continues to be negative (you could repeat in one week), you could ask you doctor to prescribe some medication called progesterone that might start your period for you.  If it is positive, contact your doctor right away.
Good luck!
