brown spotting

[spazz967]

hello, so i have had my "period" 3 times this month ..
October 27th- November 2nd Which was normal for me. but then i got dark brown spotting on November 20th until November 24th, and now again on December 8th but this time its very light spotting of dark brown. what could this be? twice in 1 month of dark brown spotting. i do not have protected sex with my boyfriend.
Please help. Every time i think i have pregnancy symptoms the tests are always negative .. so i dont want to put my boyfriend through that again. any advice?

COuld be an ovarian cysts or a fibroid.  Either of these can give pregnancy type symptoms.  If you are still unsure about pregnancy take a hpt or see your doctor for an hcg blood test.  Good luck
