what do brown periods mean?


Question Posted Friday March 5 2010, 9:00 pm

So I just got my period and I don't mean this month I mean for the first time ever and I am worried that something is wrong with me the blood isn't really red it's more of a brown color. Should I be worried about this? If not then what do brown periods mean? Sorry if I sound stupid but this is all kind of new to me, my mom ran away with another man so I can't ask her and I am really too embarrassed to ask my dad. Thanks.

It means the blood's been in your body longer.

that's nothing to worry about. it's usually brown at first since the flow isn't heavy yet.

Hey there,
No worries, a brown period is completely normal. It usually happens when your body is first adjusting to having periods. Even later, no matter how long you have had your period you could still have a 'brown' period for the first few days of the length of your period. It all depends on the person whether or not the first few days will be 'brown' or 'red' in the future. Brown periods are basically the same as red. It just means that your body is starting to release the blood,nutrients, and essentials your body needed to make a baby; just not at this time.

There is never a stupid question, just curiosity :)
