I have brown discharge even though I don't have my period

Why do I have brown discharge instead of my period ?

Menstruation, also known as period. What we should talk about today is that some women have brown discharge that looks like menstruation but is not actually menstruation. In fact, most of this situation belongs to ovulation bleeding, so don't worry, this is all normal. Next, let's actually understand what is going on when there is brown discharge without menstruation?

The key reason for brown discharge before menstruation is ovulation bleeding. Modern science believes that this disease is caused by insufficient levels of estrogen. Ovulation bleeding, also known as mid-term bleeding or mid-term bleeding, refers to bleeding between two normal menstrual periods, which may be accompanied by varying degrees of lower abdominal pain. In addition to ovulation bleeding, brown discharge before menstruation may also be a non-physiological manifestation. Brown discharge before menstruation may be caused by organic or therapeutic reasons, such as endocrine imbalance, genital inflammation, tumors, abnormal growth and development, malnutrition, etc.

The increase in leucorrhea before menstruation is due to the gradual expansion of the cervical opening during menstruation, and the sufficient metabolism of the columnar squamous epithelial cells in the cervical canal is caused, which is mostly normal. As vaginal exudate and cervical secretions increase, the amount of vaginal secretions will naturally increase. In addition, some women will also have increased secretions during the ovulation period or after fatigue between two menstrual cycles. Paying attention to rest can greatly improve the symptoms. If the amount of leucorrhea is large, has a foul odor, and is accompanied by symptoms such as vulvar itching, it is likely that the abnormal leucorrhea is caused by infection. At this time, you should see a doctor as soon as possible and take medication.

What is the etiology of brown discharge during ovulation?

1. Ovulation bleeding

In the case of brown discharge that does not occur during the menstrual period, if it occurs a few days after the menstrual period ends, we can judge that it is ovulation bleeding that causes this phenomenon, because during ovulation, part of the uterine wall will fall off, causing vaginal bleeding, and causing brown discharge. This is a normal physiological phenomenon.

2. Trichomonas vaginitis

The appearance of brown discharge during ovulation may also mean that you may have vaginitis, which can irritate the vaginal mucosa. If the mucosa is damaged, brown discharge may occur during ovulation.

3. Threatened abortion

If you find that your period is late this month, but you keep having brown discharge, you should be careful, as this may be related to threatened miscarriage. It is recommended that if this condition persists for a long time, please go to the hospital for a physical examination immediately.
