YOUR BOD | PERIODS, PERIOD | Q&A

Brown discharge. Period prob?

 
I’ve had my period for three years, but this week was different. At the end of my period, I started getting brownish discharge on and off. What’s going on?

           

Hey girlie, that brownish discharge could be a couple of different things, none of which you should worry about. What could be happening is that your body is getting rid of old endometrial tissues, which line the uterus, to make room for newer tissues. This cleaning process is perfectly normal and makes sure that your uterus is ready for future periods.  Another possible reason for the brownish discharge is just old blood that’s ready to come out. Just because it’s changed from a red to brownish color doesn’t mean you should be scared.

 

Brownish discharge is quite common, but if it starts to have a strong odor, you should go see your doctor to make sure everything’s OK.  Use your instincts, and if you think something’s up, go get it checked out. Remember-it’s better safe than sorry.

Hey girl,

 

You are one lucky chica! Embrace your cramp-free time of the month - there's nothing to worry about if your flow is normal!

MOD MOD MOD MOD!!!!!!!!!!! I'm going on holiday in 3 days, and it's right about the time of my period, but I haven't started yet, I'm soo scared of starting on holiday, or having it on holiday! Because I usually wake up with it there, and I'de be soo embarrassed if it got on the sheets! Also, I'm going with my parents and my nephew, and my nephews like, 14! And we go swimming a lot on holiday! I can insert tampons but I'de be soo paranoid about it, say if the string came out and you could see it or something! Is there anything I can do to make it come quicker so I have most of it when I'm not there, and make sure I know I have it so I don't get it everywhere?!?! Thanks for your time, have a nice daySmile xoxo




Hey Sweetie,

Bad News: You can't control when your period comes. That said, it shouldn't stop you from having a good time on your holiday. Let your Mom know, and she can cover for you or carry around extra tampons in her purse. As for knowing when it arrives, unless you can feel it, there won't be anyway to know but to check. If you know it'll arrive a certain day, wear a panty liner or a light pad so you won't be caught totally off guard.

MOD MOD MOD I don't have my period. I have had PMS for about a year. Last night I was feeling very nauseated and my stomach was very uncomfortable, I didn't have an appetite, and I was super tired at 7 even though I usually get tired at 11. When I woke up today I found this clear sticky discharge with some brown clumps in it. Is that a period? There was like, 3 clumps about the size of an eraser at the end of a pencil. Thankss!

 

 

Hey girl. PMS is something that happens for little while before your period, so having for a year isn't totally possible. You may have had similar symptoms though. It sounds like your period could be starting up. Wait a day or so and if it doesn't develop into a regular flow go see a doc. Smile
