Hi.. Guys on December 27th I got my period , it was really red and use two pads but on the next two days I started brown discharge. I usually get my period by the end of every month for three days. This is odd to me to have my period on the 27th of Dec for one day what can it be?:) :)

Brown discharge can occur before, during, and after your menstural period. This brown discharge is basically, old blood that looks brown, but usually occurs as a result of the difference levels of hormones.

New research, now, suggests brown discharge may represents sign of yeast infection. However, confirm this first with your Physician or Healthcare Provider; if you use an over-the-counter treatment for yeast and you don't really have yeast infection, you might be creating your own personal race of drug-resistant super-yeast, and next time you have a real yeast infection it could be damned hard to get rid of.

Hope this answers your question!
