    Brown discharge during period
    I am on birth control and am supposed to have my period this week, instead it has been a brown discharge for about five days but light and then today when I went to the bathroom a little red blood came out and that was it for the blood. I have had brown discharge before but I don't think I remember it being that long or ending with red blood.

    I think you may be starting your period ,given the red blood.
    Clearly, if you have not had a period in a week from your due date take a test with first morning urine.
    Brown is not uncommon before a new period.

Brown discharge instead of period [ 1 Answers ]

For the last few months instead of getting a steady red blood flow I just get brown discharge. I'm on birth control because I have polycystic ovarian syndrome but I'm not sexually active so pregnancy isn't a possibility. Could this just be an effect of the because or something more?
