For the past 3 or so months my period has
been about 5 days late. On the normal day
I should get my period I have a brown
discharge (like old blood) for about 5
days and then my period starts as normal.
Can anyone tell me what this can be or why
it is happening and when should I ovulate
with this new cycle? Help...very confused!

Many woman spot before there actual
peroid. I guess I would have to know if it
was heavy or just spotty? About ovulation.
There are inexpensive kits you can buy in
the store to track your ovulation. If you
are trying to have a child the test are
worth it. If your worried about abnormal
periods I would just watch it unless you
have pain or signs of infection then dont
be to alarmed. Stress, exercise and things
as simple as other woman around can effect
your peroid. relax and be sure to report
any changes to your doctor.

Thank you... Posted: 07-29-03 20:05pm
so much for responding so quickly. The
spotting is somewhat light but I do need a
panty liner. It may be stress because I
have had alot of that in the last several
months. As far a ovulating, I was not
sure if I start counting from the first
day of spotting or the actual period. I
have one of the kits...no refill sticks
though.

Dont worry sweetie I would start counting
from the first day of your actual peroid
the spotting is normal and some woman do
that.. In fact I do it so regular 2 days
prior to the start and the day before I
feel like I have the flu.. then like clock
work.. my periods arrives. Like its a
gift from heaven.. lol
