Experiencing brown discharge after your period can often indicate old blood being expelled, which may be normal, especially if it's light and not accompanied by discomfort. Possible causes include hormonal fluctuations, changes in cervical mucus, or even the body clearing out remnants from your menstrual cycle. Since you've noticed changes and a previous itching sensation, it would be wise to consult a gynecologist for personalized advice. They can evaluate your situation more thoroughly and ensure there are no underlying issues.

My periods got delayed and I'm getting light brown liquid discharge with very small blood clots sometimes. What's the reason? Is it normal?

Female | 17

A late period accompanied by light brown discharge with small blood clots is usually the result of hormonal disbalance, stress or pregnancy. I suggest that you see a gynecologist for an examination and appropriate diagnosis. The gynecologist is the best specialist to consult for any problem relating to menstrual health.

I am Sana from manipur. i m 20 yrs old. i have been paining one of my breast for 1 year. by the test i have taken recently, it is confirmed that there is a cyst in my breast.also my hair is fallen abnormally. my question is that- is it breast cancer? if yes, what stage it is? is completely curable? what is the immediate step i have to be taken?

A breast cyst is usually not a sign of breast cancer. If your recent tests have confirmed the presence of a cyst, your doctor may recommend additional imaging tests such as a mammogram or ultrasound to evaluate the cyst and determine what is causing the pain.

White and itchy vaginal and anal areas indicate Fungal infection . Scratching causes scars. Consult a doctor for diagnosis.. Over the counter antifungal creams may temporarily relieve symptoms. AVOID tight clothing and keep the area Dry.

I have some rashes deep in my vagina

I advise you to go to a gynecologist immediately. Rashes in vaginal area can be a sign of a vaginal infection or a sexually transmitted infection.

Hello, I'm 29 years trying to conceive and currently on my first cycle of letrozol 5mg per day. I started taking it on day 3 -7 of my cycle.I'm told to have sex on day 12,14 and 16. My period usually 10-14 days long. I'm currently still on my menstrual cycle, how does this work? How am I to have sex on day 12?

Female | 29

Letrozole is a drug that can cause your body to ovulate. Therefore, it is going to be easier for you to become pregnant. It is common practice to start taking it on days 3-7 of your period. You may still have sex on the 12th day of your cycle even if your period is usually regular for a long time.

My period was 1 day late as at yesterday and I took postinor 2 that same yesterday and I haven't even seen any spotting till now

Female | 30

Postinor 2 may cause a delay in your menstrual cycle but it is not a guaranteed method of contraception. Talk to your gynecologist for further tests to determine the cause of the delay and rule out any underlying medical conditions.
