Can brown spotting with brown mucus be counted as the first day of menstruation, or should it be counted from the moment of the appearance of normal, more abundant red bleeding?

Then you have to wait for the vivid red bleeding.
My periods usually started with red heavy bleeding, and very rarely with brown spots, maybe only a few times. She does not take hormonal contraception. Menstruation is induced by progesterone besins 200mg

It all depends on what your previous periods looked like.
Usually, the first day of menstruation is considered to be the day when intense red bleeding appeared. It doesn't have to be abundant, it's important that it is fresh, red blood.
If you are not sure whether this is the first day of your cycle, and you are starting to use hormonal contraception, many manufacturers allow you to start using the drug between the 2nd and 5th day of your cycle. In this case, however, you should use an additional protection in the form of a condom for the first 7 days of taking the pills.
