Brown Discharge And Crazy Hormones ! Posted: 05-16-07 11:14am
Alright so in the last few months.My
periods have gone from 7 days (heavy to
very light) to 4 days (heavy to light &
just stopping) So this time wasn't any
different and my period was here for 4
days and then over..well two days later i
started having dark brown discharge and
have now had it for this past week. i know
that the brown is old blood but is it
normal for it to be going on for a week?
maybe because my periods are shorter all
of a sudden could be the reason but im
just worried. I'm almost 21 and have never
experienced this before. ever since my
miscarriage 8 months ago my symptoms have
increased and my periods length has
decreased which is odd. ive always had
cramps only and a lengthy period. is this
normal too? Is it that my hormones are
still out of wack from the miscarriage?
lol sorry theres a couple questions in
there if you have any input it would be
greatly appreciated.
thanks

nope..not yet..once the insurance goes
through im going to set up my first OBGYN
and get a pap since its been a couple
years and see about diff types of birth
control..
i havent been on BC since i was 17..i had
been on them from the age of 12-17 to
regulate my periods and reduce the amount
of blood.

Well I can't tell you for sure but I would
guess that it's from the miscarriage or
just a normal fluctuation. I wouldn't
worry unless there is a serious amount of
blood loss for a long time, or you think
it might be some kind of infection or
something (but then there would probably
be other symptoms as well).

Have you tried a home pregnancy test?
Maybe your pregnant again.
