Dark brown discharge!!!!!

05-27-2011, 03:48 AM

Hello, I need some help. I am a mum of 3 and have never had this issue.
I got my period on the 5th of may finished on the 11th of may < thats normal.
But on the 26th may I had tummy cramps that i didnt read into but when I went to the toilet I had very dark brown thick discharge on my nickers. It didnt smell bad. I put a pad on just incase but nothing else happened.
I dont think its old blood as my periods have always been regular with no issues what so ever... I don't know what this is... Please help!

Old blood remaining after your last period, happens to all women at some point, nothing to worry about.

There are those who believe that dictionaries should not merely reflect the times but also protect English from the mindless assaults of the trendy.

I get that sometimes too. Usually not that far between my periods, but I wouldn't put it past old blood. It could also be implantation bleeding, but sort of doubtful. Just wait for your next period, and if all comes normal, I wouldnt worry about it.
