Thread: Icky, brown discharge!!!

One thing that I can tell you is you might have an infection because #1) the dicharge is brown and #2) it smells. Some doctors ask, when you complain of probelms in that area; do you have a discharge, does it have a odor, a color? I dont know what type because different people have different side affects. Check that out for sure. When you do find out what is wrong, alot of women dont know this, but eat plenty of yogurt, and drink lots of water, and cranberry juice. The yogurt helps to keep infections away, and the water keeps your body cleansed. The cranberry juice keeps away bladder infections. I know females have to go through alot. Take care.

wow i remember those days.

when i read the title on the board, i right away asked mysel, 'i bet this is a young girl'.
when i read your message, i saw you are 15.
when you are young its normal to get that. it is basically the beginning of your period...even if its not yet due, this can happen 1 week before your period, it goes away, then you bleed. it is blood, and it doesnt smell too good either because its old blood. i remember this.
I still even get this sometimes...but im in my twenties.

its the green and yellow fishy smelling discharge you have to be concerned about.
but if you are still unsure, by all means see your doc

I am having problem a little similar to this. I had a prolonged menstrual lasted for a month long with brown discharge. I am pretty much emotionally disturb by this and have been wondering what could went wrong. I am 25 years old and not on any contraceptive pills.
Anyone please kindly advice me?

i am 37 and my body has done that on 2 occasions... 1st time i was 2 weeks pregnant and miscarried, 2nd time i forgot my birth control pills when i went out of town for the weekend, so i didn't get to take them all weekend... and for the rest of the month i had the brown discharge... if you are really scared, call your gyn's office and talk to the nurse. she has heard everything and is the best to advise you!!

Um, I am having a weird month because my menstral cycle is out of wack!

I am almost 19 and scared to death! HELP!
