These are important factors in diagnosing the disease. Only a clear diagnosis can tell you why your leucorrhea is brown. Here are some common diseases that cause brown vaginal discharge.

2. Cervical polyps. The cervix is ​​stimulated by chronic inflammation for a long time, and single or multiple pedunculated polyps may grow at the cervical opening. The polyps are fragile and tender and will bleed if touched.

3. Endometriosis. Some endometriosis grows on the cervix and appears as blue-purple nodules. The amount of bleeding is generally small and dark red, and abdominal pain often occurs after intercourse.

4. Cervical cancer. Bleeding after sexual intercourse or bloody vaginal discharge are its earliest symptoms. Because there are more small blood vessels and the tissues are more fragile in the cancer lesions, the capillaries will rupture and bleed due to damage after each sexual intercourse.

5. Side effects caused by intrauterine contraceptive device.

6. If bloody vaginal discharge occurs in the middle of the menstrual cycle, it may be related to ovulation bleeding. If there are no discomfort symptoms, no treatment is necessary.
