Brownish Discharge


Question Posted Wednesday September 30 2009, 1:04 am

18/f
I actually don't know how to word this haha, so please bear with me.

I started to get a brownish discharge about 2-3 days ago. Sometimes there would be a reddish color to it, but usually it is nor. I have had regular periods and if it is on schedule, my next one should be next week.

I tried googling this, it came up with similar results but the cause was different. Most of the causes were based on birth control pills, STD/STIs, sexual activity, pregnancy, etc. I am not sexually active, nor have I ever had sex. Some answers to this question say stuff like: it's normal, it might be cervical cancer, an infection or something about dry blood and the uterine lining.

Advice on what is happening or what I should do would be really helpful.

Thanks in advance.

EDIT;
I don't have any cramping or pain in the abdominal area. Only muscle pain from carrying heavy things and having a cold.

No one knows your body better than you! If you think it is not normal than stick to yourselfs opinion. Just to be safe you should schedule an appointment with your doctor or gyno.

Anytime your body is a brownish discharge it is a concern.

What are your symptoms if any attached to the discharge? Do you have any discomfort, any abdominal pain?

Usually the brownish discharge isnt until after your almost finished with your period from dry blood that has sat inside you.

I would be more concerned that possibly you have a cyst that has ruptured and is releasing from your abdomen. My suggestion to you is to see your gyno and get checked.

Most of the time if you have a ruptured cyst you may need an antibiotic or it can cause infection. If you are in any sports or work out as well this can cause infection. So the best thing to do is to get checked.

Good luck

sometimes this can happen right before your getting your period. the samething happened to me two weeks after i had my period and turned out it was because of stress i got an early period. you may get your period earlier than usual or it could happen because your soon due for a period..i wouldnt be too stressed about it but if it happens again next month id go to the doctor
