Why is my period blood brown?

My period blood is brown why?

1 Answer
Dr. Himali Patel

Gynecologist/Obstetrician

Answered on 28th Jan '25

Seeing brown discharge can be normal, often indicating older blood being expelled from the body. This color may appear towards the beginning or end of your menstrual cycle. Common explanations include hormonal changes, stress, or the beginning of your period. If you have any unusual symptoms, such as a strong odor, severe discomfort, or a significant change in cycle patterns, it’s wise to consult with a gynecologist. They can provide personalized advice and reassurance.

My last period was on 13 th January and now my periods are late by 4 days in between there was some sexual intercourse. I have taken a pregnancy test today and it was negative. I haven’t got my periods. What should I do next.

Female | 22

Consult a gynecologist for evaluation. Sometimes pregnancy tests can give false negatives if taken too early. And there can be other reasons too for a delayed period, like hormonal changes or stress.

Can i get pregnant with precum when having coitus 3-5 days before my periods??

Female | 19

Yes, there is a chance but it is low. Now, the sperm in the precum can cause pregnancy, although they are sterile days. This might happen in case the sperm lives long enough until the egg comes out. Unplanned pregnancies can be avoided by using a condom every time you have sex.

I am a 24 year old female I have been spotting with clear discharge since your last period which is for the past 7 days The discharge has a sticky clear jelly-like texture with strands of blood. I also have cramps, but the pain is not severe.

Female | 24

You might have ovulation ble­eding. This happens when your body le­ts out an egg. You might see a bit of blood or cle­ar sticky stuff. It is normal to have small cramps too. It will go away soon. Drink water and rest. You can put a warm thing on your be­lly if you need to.

6 yrs of marriage having 2 kids both are normal delivery 2nd child is about 3 yrs Yesterday after intercourse I started bleeding at present now bleeding while urinating only any worry My last period date is 26 april

Female | 32

Bleeding can be caused by a small vaginal area tear or an itching sensation. There could be various reasons such as bacterial infections or hormonal changes. People need to remain quiet, get hydrated, and relax. Moreover, sex should be completely avoided until it is diagnosed.

I'm 22 year old female and I'm suffering from white discharge from a month and also it causes itching, swelling, irritation. Sometimes that discharge all cloudy .

Female | 22

You might have a Yeast infection. Yeast infections are white discharges with itching, swelling, and irritation. A cloudy discharge can appear at times. Yeast infections are common and can easily be treated by over-the-counter anti-fungal creams or suppositories. Also, wear loose cotton underpants and bypassing soap-induced irritation, as gentle as well as mild soap, is best to prevent future infections.
