Brown vaginal discharge?

I have had dark brown vaginal discharge for the last week or so. I am on birth control pills and my period is not due for another week. It doesn’t smell like anything and i don’t really have any other symptoms. I may have only had sex once since the last time i had my period. Anyone else experience this?

That will happen the first time you have your period. That’s typically how it starts. If it’s all brown and goopy then you probably had your first period.
Your next period will probably still have some brown discharge but it’ll have more blood with it too.
-
This means you are having your period.
The first period is common to have the brown discharge
As your cycle gets more regulated you will notice that the blood will be more normal.
When you first start your periods, it may take a year or more to get regulated.
Be sure you use (or carry with you) some panty liners, just in case your flow would start to get heavier.
Take Care.

You started your period, sweetheart(: Congratulations! Be sure to tell mommy so she can help you out with anything you may need. I’d start off wearing a pad; and when you get more comfortable you can move on to tampons. No need to worry; next month should be more reddish(:

It sounds like the beginning of your period. I would put on a pad just in case it gets heavier.

I know about it before and a lil after your period but i have had it for 3 weeks now and don’t know if its just dried up blood or what. I have had my period for 8 years and have been on birth control for 2 years. Has anyone had it for this long or any suggestions? The end of my period was 3 weeks ago and next weekend like normal i should be on my period again.

As uncommon as this is it may not be cause for great concern. Brown vaginal discharge is most often associated with old endometrial tissues. In other words, if your period is late you might get a brown, rather than red, discharge. It could also mean that for whatever reason during your last menses the entire uterine lining failed to make a timely exit. What you are seeing now is the fashionably late exit.
In some cases however there is cause for concern. Brown vaginal discharge can also be a symptom of a medical concern that is much more sinister than leftover endometrial cells.
Some common conditions causing brown vaginal discharge include: cervical cancer, Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID), perimenopause, menopause, or sexually transmitted diseases like gonorrhea, Chlamydia or vaginal warts.
This is something You should go see your doctor about as soon as possible.

I’m 15. It’s not blood, there’s no red tint to it at all. It’s really thick. I had my period last week, too. There’s no smell, so I know it’s not a stool. It’s a lot, too and I’m also a bit itchy. I’m on the Ortho-Evra patch and I recently had an ovarian cyst, if that helps.
What is this??

For the answer to this you need a Dr visit. I may be a vaginal yeast infection. see a Doctor.
-
It might possibly be old blood, which often comes out brown and sometimes doesn’t have a red tint to it. However, you need to go to a doctor and get it checked out.
-
Blood doesn’t have to be red. Old blood looks brown. The vagina is self-cleaning. It sounds like it’s breakthrough bleeding form the patch. Call your doctor if you are concerned.
-
Ok well the brown discharge is old blood. Because you started birth control recently, you are probably spotting until your body gets used to the hormones. It isn’t anything to be worried about. All the brown stuff is is blood. Blood comes in other colors when its older. Don’t worry about it.

I am 17 years old and a virgin. I first got my period when I was 13 but it has usually been highly irregular since then. I have gone maybe as far as two months without a period before. There is no set "time of the month" for me. I usually have a rather thick, opaque, sometimes odorous yellowish-whitish discharge daily on most occasions (which I already worry about). However, recently in the past month I have had a brown discharge almost every day. It’s not really odorous, but it resembles the discharge I usually have on the last day or two of my period. There’s no pain.
Does anyone have an idea of what this means? I am worried that it’s bacterial vaginosis or something. I’m hesitant to assume it’s related to my irregular period since it’s been going on for a while. It might sound gross, but I also take showers every other day so would it stop if I cleaned down there daily? Please help.

you might be getting your period. but i would definitly go to the doctor and props on keeping your virginity… and to the wooaaaahhhh answer be respectful or get off yahoo!

Once you start puberty a white and/or clear wet mucous discharge is normal. The vagina is self-cleaning. This same discharge increases the closer you get to ovulation and when you are sexually aroused. Trust me, you don’t ever want it to go away. You will also have your own scent – musky – and it will smell stronger to you than to others.
This normal discharge will also continue after you get your period. You can wear a pantyliner if it bothers you. Some girls do produce more discharge than others. Your normal white/clear discharge will turn yellow or dry yellow when exposed to air.
As for the constant spotting (brown discharge) I would say your body is trying to have a period, but you really should see a doctor to get your hormones checked.
Different Types of Discharge:
White: Thick, white discharge is common at the beginning and end of your cycle. Normal white discharge is not accompanied by itching. If itching is present, thick white discharge can indicate a yeast infection.
Clear and stretchy: This is "fertile" mucous and means you are ovulating.
Clear and watery: This occurs at different times of your cycle and can be particularly heavy after exercising.
Yellow or Green: May indicate an infection, especially if thick or clumpy like cottage cheese or has a foul odor.
Spotting Blood/Brown Discharge: May happen right after periods, and is just "cleaning out" your vagina. Old blood looks brown. This may occur when you are ovulating/mid-cycle.
Different types of infections:
Signs of yeast infections:
White, cottage cheese-like discharge
Swelling and pain around the vulva
Intense itchingSigns of bacterial vaginosis:
A white, gray or yellowish vaginal discharge
A fishy odor that is strongest after sex or after washing with soap
Itching or burning
Slight redness and swelling of the vagina or vulva

Well, after this period.. on sunday I think.. i started having brown stuff coming out of my vagina. yes i am sexually active but only with 1 person in my life. Every time i go pee and i wipe, the brown stuff comes off on the toilet paper and even when i’m not going to the bathroom, i can feel it coming out on my underwear just like discharge. I got a papsmere a couple months ago and i didn’t have any kind of STD’S. What can this be?? PLEASE help me and PLEASE don’t be rude, i really need serious answers. thank you

It’s part of your period, what are you worried about?

peeing out poop can not be good……….

Some of the blood and uterus lining doesn’t shed off during your period. It comes out later on as brown looking stuff. Old blood is brown. Does it smell like blood? If it smells like something else, go to your Gyno. I get that brown discharge before my period each month. Sometimes I get it a few days after my period is over. It’s common.
-
You know, there is an actual thing call a "Douche". It is expressly made for these situations.

um don’t douche. old blood is brown, and old blood and other period stuff that has been sitting in your body comes out brown. nothing to worry about.

What causes brown vaginal discharge?
As uncommon as this is it may not be cause for great concern. Brown vaginal discharge is most often associated with old endometrial tissues. In other words, if your period is late you might get a brown, rather than red, discharge. It could also mean that for whatever reason during your last menses the entire uterine lining failed to make a timely exit. What you are seeing now is the fashionably late exit.
In some cases however there is cause for concern. Brown vaginal discharge can also be a symptom of a medical concern that is much more sinister than leftover endometrial cells.
Some common conditions causing brown vaginal discharge include: cervical cancer, Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID), perimenopause, menopause, or sexually transmitted diseases like gonorrhea, Chlamydia or vaginal warts.
When Is It Serious?
How are you supposed to know when this is no big deal, or possibly a really big deal? The purpose of this article is to educate and ease your mind not incite general panic. As with any medical concern it always best to visit with your doctor. If you are hesitant to make an appointment for what is obviously a personal issue, try calling your doctor?s office and talking your symptoms over with a nurse. This will help you to make up your mind whether or not you an appointment.
If the brown vaginal discharge is a result of dysfunctional endometrial elimination your symptoms would likely be a later than usual period, if that.
Each of the other conditions mentioned have much more noticeable symptoms of their own in addition to brown discharge. Just a few are: pain, discharge that is watery or yellowish, depression, vaginal dryness, pain with intercourse, frequent urination, infertility, dysfunctional uterine bleeding, burning, itching, rash, hot to touch, mouth ulcers, and loss of appetite.
Find relief from brown discharge
Certainly a visit with a qualified health care provider will provide much relief and a clear treatment course.
If the cause of the brown vaginal discharge is simply old uterine cells, then the treatment may be simple life style suggestions such as better nutrition, regular exercise and drinking more water. If, however you discover the discharge is a result of another condition treatments will be aimed at curing that particular disease. For more detailed information study your diagnosis. A brief list of treatment options for other causes of brown vaginal discharge include: prescription medication, chemotherapy, surgery, dietary supplements, a pap smear and other medical testing and repeat visits to the doctor.

OK here is the problem. Back in begining of august I was with my bf of the time, we did not have sex but there was fingering involved and I am not on birth control. That was on the day I was supposed to start my period, couple days later I had my period but it was very light. Couple days later I had lower back pains for a couple days. Since then I had two full normal periods (cramps and all). Then my last one only lasted 3 days (not normal for me). Now I I am supposed to have my period in 8 days but I have brown vaginal discharge. Back around October I took a home pregnancy test cause my one friend felt I was being over paranoid and making me stress. And it came out clearly negative. So what on earth is going on. I am gaining weight but I thought it was based on I took weight lose pills over the summer lost water weight and it came back. So what is going on?

Sounds like a vaginal infection maybe, go talk to your doctor or a gyno,
it could be someting much more complicated.
the doctor cannot tell your parents about it, so don’t worry about your parents finding out!But, fingering cannot make you pregnant unless he had sperm on his fingers, which i doubt.
please answer mine?

it sounds like the brown discharge your having is from old period blood. I have learned that pregnancy scares are a mental game. your weight gain could have came from being scared that you were pregnant. if you are still worried, go to the doctor. the doctor can give you a blood test you if you are or are pregnant. good luck and try to stay calm!

I’m not pregnant and my period is suppose to start in about two weeks. I have noticed a light brown discharge in my panties (very small amount) and also some when I urinate. It’s not very much at all, but i’m not use to seeing that color unless its after my period. What could this be? Please only serious and mature answers. Thank you!

Brown: May happen right after periods, and is just "cleaning out" your vagina. Old blood looks brown.
Spotting Blood/Brown Discharge: This may occur when you are ovulating/mid-cycle. Sometimes early in pregnancy you may have spotting or a brownish discharge at the time your period would normally come. If you have spotting at the time of your normal period rather than your usual amount of flow, and you have had sex without using birth control, you should check a pregnancy test.

your spotting
its not your period your just getting ready for it
or you have a vaginal infection

Go to the doctors, you have an infection

It is very possible that you could be starting your periods, brown discharge is a sign that a period is late, or there are other health concerns that it could be. If you are not sexually active then it could also be :Vulvovaginitis can affect women of all ages and is extremely common. It can be caused by bacteria, yeasts, viruses, and other parasites.
Basically, go see a doctor, most likely it is not something to worry about. It may be just a bacterial infection and you may need an antibiotic.

it is pre-menstrual spotting – read below everything about First Period

I had sex with a man 2 weeks ago and just as a precaution got the morning after pill. I got a funny looking discharge about 2 days after i took the pill. It is like a blood/brown/flesh-like discharge! Its been going on for over a week now and i am getting so sore and stingy down below, its almost impossible to walk. Is this normal or what is wrong?

that's your first period… it's a very small amount as you described… blood becomes brownish when it dries.

CONGRATULATIONS you have started your period! the brown is just old blood that usually comes at first then it will get heavier and redder and then will start to dwindle into nothing…. have a talk with you mom and get some pads or tampons…

Ok..so..I was on birth control for one month in Sept. I had my normal period in Oct. and I haven't had it since. I've had sex about 4 times since Oct. and all preg. tests come up negative…just no period. Now when I do have sex, afterwards a brownish discharge is present for a couple of days, like my period is starting, but doesn't. Again…all preg. tests are negative. Anyone have any ideas?

It has been way to long with out a period I would definately go to the dr. What they will do is have you stop your birth control if you havent already and then they will give you a series of pills that will make you start your period then after your first normal period they will give you a different kind of birth control that best fits you. Everyone bodys are so different and that just might not be the right pill for you.
-
You could just be spotting. this usually happens when women get on birth control. It is normal. but it has a strong smell you should get checked. just in case.
-
its probably just spotting and the brown blood is old blood. not to sound gross but when you have sex your boyfriend is probably cleaning you out and old blood and lining is coming out

About a week and half after my last period I developed lower abdomen cramping and a light brown/pinkish vaginal discharge. I figured I was ovulating but the next day the discharge was a little heavier and reeked of ammonia. The ER doc said I had an infection but there may be other issues too. He gave me a weeks worth of Macrobid. The symptoms disappeared after about 5 days. But now here we are 7 days later and I awoke with nausea, vomiting and lower abdominal cramping. Now the discharge is back and smells again. What's going on???
**I know I'm not pregnant but I did have a baby 5 months ago.**
**I did finish the prescription**

Have you taken a pregnancy test? Maybe the symptoms of what you had did not go away… Call your doctor again to see her as soon as you can!
-
Did you finish the prescription or did you stop taking it once the symptoms went away? If you don't finish a prescription, even if symptoms are gone, infection can come back. Regardless, you need to go back to your doc b/c it seems like this first treatment didn't work.
-
You really need to go back to the doctors, the pills haven't done the trick and you need further treatment go a.s.a.p.

It's normal to notice a bit of blood in your discharge or even spot when you're ovulating. Sometimes the blood is from the egg bursting through the follicle and sometimes the uterus will shed a bit of it's lining due to the hormones. Ovulation occurs on average 14 days after your last period starts, you're at about this point in your cycle; it's a good sign of fertility.

I have been having a light brownish kind of thick discharge lately. It's a bit foul smelling as well. I've never had this kind of discharge before. Also, I am sexually active and I had my period a couple weeks ago, so it isn't that. and I'm not sure if this helps at all, but I took a morning after pill about a week ago.
Comments

It could be dried blood with tiny tissues from Uterus when taking morning after pill. However, if you feel pain in the lower tummy, it also could be from baterial infections or torned skin inside. Normal torned skin should heal tiself within a week without more interuptions. If due to pill with not much pain (misscarriage), you will be fine within 2 weeks. However, you need to stop sex during the healing time. In any case, check with your gynecologist or do a preg test.
-
It can be the after birth, your body is still trying to cleanse itself from the abortion. If there is any pain then you should see your gynecologist right away.
-
maybe you should douche…if you dont like to do that then go to the doctor…
-
You took the pill as directed right? You are only supposed to take it within 72 hours of unprotected sex. If you took it after 72 hours it's pieces of the uterine wall that was going to be a baby.
If you took it right you are supposed to have your period. That's what it does. It doesn't kill anything as nothing has formed yet. This is not your regular period then something is wrong. You need to go to the doctor as soon as possible dear. It's most likely bacterial. It could be an STD though.

Did you just start the pill? It's probably spotting is all. No big. It'll stop on its own.

That isnormal. yourutrus hasen' cleaned itself out completely after your period.
-
You didn't mention how long you have been on the pill, but you did say that you had your period 2 weeks ago. Right now you are probably in your ovulaton phase and sometimes the increase in hormonal levels combined with the pill can cause a brownish colored discharge.
-
did you take any pills late or miss. this would be an explanation for this
-
It is breakthrough bleeding. Not a big deal call the Dr if it becomes heavy and bright red.
-
You're just spotting. Since its old blood, its brown. If it continues, you may need a bit stronger birth control pill. Some of the lower hormone ones can cause breakthrough bleeding. Just monitor it for a month or so. I'm sure it will just regulate itself.
-
It's just a little breakthru bleeding…
-
It's probably spotting. If this hasn't stopped in a few months, you might need a stronger pill to stop it (but give it a few months–takes a while to adjust to the pill).
There is also a chance it could be an STD if it's grayish, smells bad, hurts, etc. If you think this is a possibility, look into it.
-
have you been sticking anything in there that could have melted like chocolate maybe?

I had sex 2-3 days ago, I was up on my knees and he was behind me. When he first entered i felt slight pain and that was it. After we were done i noticed some bright red blood on the condom from me. The next morning in the shower i had a dark blot clot about the size of a silver dollar come out of me. I have had a dark brown discharge (no ordor) since the following morning, enough where i have to wear a panty liner. I also have had lower abdomen pains on and off through out the day and more intense pains when i am laying down in bed. They feel like menstrual cramps. But I just had my period about a week and a half ago. Also this is the first time i have had sex in about six months and it was with my boyfriend, no one new. My boyfriend is quite long is it possible he could have tore something? please help!
i do not have std's…. and an infection doesn't make sense eithier… i no i should go to the doctor but, i'm looking for some thoughts..

If you are having pain and a discharge you should go and see a doctor. You may have an std or some sort of infection. Even though you haven't had sex in six months, you could have had an infection all this time and are now just showing symptoms.
-
you may have some torn flesh.
probably because you were tense or not lubricated, or the angle of entry was not correct.
-
im a nurse and you should see a dr. because you might have a small tear and if you do it can get infected and then you can really suffer some harmful effects. Don't worry but DO see a dr. ASAP. you need a pelvic exam. you are smart to be concerned about your body and to notice its chages ,most peaple ignore thier body signs when they need to be addressed!! pain is a message sent from your brain telling you there is somthing wrong.
-
Yeah, I bleed and get cramps if I have sex on top of him or him from behind…obgyn just says I'm sensitive…even though this just started happening the past couple years.The brown discharge is actually still blood, but that's what happens when the bleeding is slowing down,coming to a stop.Do you have that when your period is ending?It's the same thing. My obgyn tested me for chlamydia because when i have an exam i end up bleeding…test totally negative…lol. Then she thought I could have endometriosis as those are the major side effects and the cramps can get really bad. There is no way to tell unless the do that surgery where they put a small camera in your stomach to look around…i forget what its called.She put me on a depo injection called lupron which is whats used for people who have that (besides doing the surgery and burning the infected parts off), she said that if the pain stopped after getting the injection that it was definately endometriosis…and it did.Go to your doctor, to an OBGYN….my regular doctor totally screwed me up when I went to him first. You need to find out whats wrong…hope you feel better.

that's quite nasty. Sounds like he must have done some internal damage. Tell him to ease up.
-
he just popped you cherry completely… that's all

HEY!!! that chick who said shes a nurse was just answering another question saying shes a nutritionist, actaully im quite sure shes a professional B.S.er……go see a doctor, if i had one guess id say you had a miscarraige.

I had my period almost 2 weeks ago but it was a little long. (2 light days extra) I am on birth control so they are regular. I noticed when i peed that there was some brown goop on the toilet paper but havent noticed it on my underwear. Is this something I should be worried about? I had sex a couple days ago…a couple times with my boyfriend but we've been doing that over a year now…would it make a difference if the sex was a little rougher than normal? I'm worried about being pregnant or maybe a miscarage? I have had no pain what so ever in that region. should i worry?

Could be your body trying to have a break-through period, as the pill mimics your hormones you may need a stronger birth control pill to control your this (and avoid pregnancy).
You also may have had some slight tears if sex was a little rougher than normal (not anything to worry about).
I would strongly suggest seeing a doctor to check the pill you are on.
-
It's normal. Brown blood is old blood. It could be left over from your period, break through bleeding from a change in hormones.
-
O that's totally normal, some people get it some don't. It's kinda like blood because it'll come after your period finish or b4 it comes. I'm on depo provera my period is irregular but i always had it. its like discharge after or b4 your period. you don't have an infection or anything like that, But if your still worried just go to your doctor.

I've just been through this horrible event of trying to understand my situation. My period ended a week and a half ago – it too was 2 days longer and when it ended I had watery discharge. No odor, no itching, no nothing just a fair amount of watery discharge. After a week of that I went to the clinic and got checked. They said I had Bacterial Vaginosis and prescribed an antibiotic. I took that for a few days and my discharge turned brown. No more watery stuff but less discharge and brown. I talked to the nurse at the OBGYN I'm seeing tomorrow, and she said the antibiotic didn't work on me and that sometimes happens and that the infection has gotten worse. I'm going tomorrow to see what they can do for me. I've been inserting yogurt tampons today and taking folic acid and active good bacteria cultures in pill form since yesterday. All the research I've done gives varying symptoms but they all say BV is a common type of vaginal yeast imbalance. Most women get a strong fishy odor with BV. I did not but if you do, you should get yourself looked at. No one wants to go around smelling like that. I would still use the natural yogurt remedies along with an antibiotic because antibiotics kills all bacteria and we need the good ones.
