Why is my period brown?

Question

I have had no symptoms of getting my period that I usually do (such as tender b*****s or cramps), but I started noticing brown spotting yesterday, and now it is just a little heavier today. It is not red like my period is at all. Is this just the beginning of my period or should i worry

Answer 1

it's just old blood from your last period.

Answer 2

its normal if its that color, dont worry

Answer 3

Theree's nothing to worry about..that's normal. If your period is brown at any time, it just means that it has been in your body longer. it's not fresh blood.

Which is normal

Answer 4

Probably because of your high iron diet and its not really brown it just has a slight ting from the food you eat.

Answer 5

It's the beginning of your period, and your blood is a bit dry.

Answer 6

Sometimes the v****a cleans itself out, and when it does you have a brownish discharge. This is normal because old blood looks brown.

Dont worry!

Either your v****a is cleaning or your period will begin in the next couple of days.

Answer 7

worry girl

Answer 8

Not to sound gross, but I noticed that too.  I asked my gyno, and it's actually old blood from the last period that didn't make it out (which is why it is brown.)  Your new blood (red) will appear soon.  Sorry if I grossed you out, hope this answers your question!

Answer 9

no worries. mine is brown at the beginning of every period

Answer 10

Dark blood or just some weird discharge.  It's normal.

Answer 11

Go to your doctor sweety. i dont think that is rite

Answer 12

yea its the beginning..
