brownish discharge before period starts

Lots of women do spot before their period starts up. Brown blood/discharge is old blood and not something to worry about. If you have it more often than a few days before period, talk to your doctor about it. It's nothing to worry about but might mean your hormones aren't in balance.

m having brownish discharge with dark blood a week before my period ??

And another thing i forgot to add is that sometimes this kind of discharge goes on as long as my next period starts

Hi there and welcome. Well, it is not uncommon to have a bit of brown discharge (old blood) right before you start your flow. I have this sometimes about a day and a half before the full period starts. Why don't you give it a couple of days to see if your period shows up and if not, then take a test. Hopefully aunt flow is on the way!! Remember to use protection when having intercourse!

It seems to start right after my period and lasts for about 2 weeks and then about a week before my period it goes away and then it starts all over again after my period. It seems this has been going on for a few years now. I've been to my yearly exams and they haven't found anything on the PAP test, so I guess I'm okay but it just seems strange. Why all of a sudden have I gotten this. I have my daughter almost 4 years ago and it seems like it started a year or so after I had her.

I was supposed to start my period around the end or the first of the following month. Well this month I spotted for about 1 or 2 days and then I stopped. On the 6th I started my period which was late I ended 2 days ago. Well for the past say and a half I've had a brownish discharge. This past month I've been moody, tired all the time, craving nothing but mountain dew and I usually don't like it, my breast have been kind of tender and I've been cramping.

PMS symptoms are mood changes, sore breasts, irritability, cramps and a clear, slippery discharge. When your period starts it will probably be light and brownish instead of bright red. As your period progresses, it will turn bright red, and then brownish again when your period finishes.

KTowne is right, an infection can cause this. The likes of a bacteria infection is well known to cause this. Brown discharge can be normal before and after a period, but it shouldn't last that long so you need to see a doctor and have some swabs done.

) You will often find that right before your period starts it is very dry and almost chalky. Then you might get a discharge of a light brown. This is because the blood leaving the uterus doesn't just come out like a tap, but takes a couple of days to travel through the cervix and out the vagina. Rest assured you are normal. Only if it becomes smelly or always stays a certain colour should you worry. Best wishes on being a woman!

I called my GYNO and spoke to the nurse. She said your period starts when you see the brownish spotting. This is considered the start of your period. My last period started on August 5th. On August 31st in the afternoon, I noticed brown spotting. This brown spotting has been very light. As of September 4th, I am still experiencing this light brownish spotting. My breasts are bigger and tender. I have experienced no bright red blood or spotting.

No need to worry when on loloestrine your period cycle is slower at reacting than if you werent on it. Lets say your period before birth control was light and the normal blood color but now with the birth control or the pill it is kind of behind so our periods is just old blood and then it will go away. I hope this helped do not let anyone scare you into thinking it could be implantation bleed.

So i was wondering yes i know brown discharge can happen before your period and after as your body gets rid of old blood. But for me ive never had brown discharge before my period . So 9 days before im suppose to start my period i went to wipe and realized it was brownish. so i decided to put a tampon in. and 3 hrs later i took it out. It was brown. Weird for me since this hasnt happened before. I want to know is this a symptom of pregnancy?

When trying to get pregnant what does brownish discharge mean? Could I be pregnant?

Okay so I'm 17 I'll be 18 next month. So me and my boyfriend had sex 2 weeks after my last period my last period was somewhere between the week of of the 15th through the 21st of December we had unprotected sex 2 weeks later I'm on birth control for almost a year now and take it at the same time everyday like I'm supposed to but not always sometimes I wake up late and take it 2 to 3 hours later than I should.

It stays up until your period starts. UNLESS you are pregnant in which case it stays up. My tempt stayed up two times in the years that I charted . . .both times I was pregnant. So, that's a handy way of knowing. Next cycle, try it. Anyway, I'd wait a full week and take another test if you haven't started your period. And please know it takes couples on average a full year to conceive when trying. It will happen in time, hon.

Has it been brownish since it started, or was it like a normal period at first, but is now brownish? Are you on birth control? Birth control can cause this to happen. A brown discharge is old blood, so it's not fresh bleeding. Brown discharge can occur at the start or end of a period, and it's just your body's way of flushing out what was left in there from your period. Sometimes, this can be the sign of STDs or bacterial infection as well.

brown blood is old blood so it just be your body getting rid of what was left over from your last period before this starts.

I have been early by 3 days and my period starts off with mild spotting of dark brownish discharge sometime jelly like texture. Sorry about the gross detail but Im really worried that I might have fibroids. Please provide help. Thanks much.
