Thread: I finished my period yet...

about a week later I am experiencing brown discharge. I'm not sure this calls for a checkup, but I don't smell an unusual odor. It looks just like what accumulates right before and after your period, at times. However, I am feeling some UTI like symptoms and more tenderness than usual in the pelvic area. I'm also getting bad hormonal breakouts for the first time....mostly around my chin and mouth. I wonder if the symptoms are related to each other. I haven't been sexually active for 7 months and i'm 29. My last pap was about 7 months ago as well. Should i waste the copay to see someone or does this sound familiar?

I would agree with LadyLane i know that my body changed once i made 30. My periods changed esp and so did the length of my cycle. I also had to deal with acne and hair in strange places.

Usually the doctor tells you that brown blood is old blood so i would say not to worry but deffinently keep a note on how much, how long and if you had any pain prior to or during the time you notice the brown blood.
I would do this just in case your doctor thinks it is something that needs to be looked into.

Good luck to you and i hope i have been of some help to either you or another person looking at this post.
