    late period, dark (almost black) bleeding

    Hi guys! I just wanted to know if this is normal because it is not normal for me. My period is almost two weeks late and I was grateful to see it this morning but my bleeding is very thick and dark, almost black. It isn't very heavy (I would say that I am spotting heavily if anything). I have taken a pregnancy test and it was negative and this doesn't feel like a miscarriage (I have had several) so what else could it be? Any ideas?

    I can only state that sometimes if i am late, that late, for no reason as well, this can / has occured.

    Your body missed out for what ever reason, turning up on time, and so there's a lot of gunk swirling inside that wants to come out..

    Sounds gross huh, lol..

    It's nothing, it happens...

      I will add however, sometimes it can be an iron deficiency, perhaps pose that question to your Doctor.

        When I used to get my period- it was always very, very heavy and very dark. Doc said it was normal. He said quote- "Different things are normal for different people. But if it doesn't feel or seem right to you- you should come get it checked out just is in case." I think it's normal- especially since you're late but you never know.

          i m experiencing this too. i m late for 10 days. i have this weird brown sometimes with red blood discharge (sometimes stringy) (or light period??) *ehem sorry*

          it appears to be quite dark and like a after effect of period i always had.
          but this aint normal for me cox my period is normally heavy at the first 3 days and light torwards the end....

          i realize there's something happening to my cycle 2 months ago, my period is late for 2 weeks and now this is happening. *sigh* but i m also down with stress these few months. i have no signs of pregnancy besides this
