Brown discharge a week after period

When menstruation comes, a large amount of bloody secretions will be discharged from a woman's lower body. This is a substance discharged by the ruptured eggs mixed with toxins in the female body. Generally speaking, menstruation will last for about a week, and during this stage, you should avoid having sex and be careful not to eat too cold food. However, a week after the end of menstruation, some women still have brown secretions discharged from their lower body. What's going on?

Is it normal to have brown discharge after a few days of menstruation?

If this situation only occurs once, it should not be a big problem. It may be due to catching a cold in the stomach during menstruation, or eating raw, cold, spicy and irritating foods, which causes menstrual flow to be blocked. It should stop on its own after a few days. If this situation occurs frequently, inflammation should be considered, such as cervicitis, endometritis, etc., and color ultrasound and internal examinations are needed. If inflammation is confirmed, anti-inflammatory medication should be used in time. Because over time, endometritis can easily cause endometrial adhesions, which can seriously affect future pregnancies. Cervical erosion may also become malignant, so it is best to treat it in a timely manner.

If brown discharge appears one week after the end of menstruation, it is considered to be ovulation bleeding. Because the amount is small, it stays in the uterine cavity and vagina for a long time, and is brown when it is discharged from the body through the vagina. Brown discharge that appears within one week after the end of the menstrual period requires exclusion of organic uterine lesions. It is recommended to check gynecological ultrasound and six sex hormones to rule out organic lesions such as endometrial lesions, submucosal fibroids, endometrial polyps, endometritis, etc. In addition, intermenstrual bleeding is considered to be caused by the influence of estrogen on the endometrium, resulting in endometrial asynchrony.

If you have brown discharge a few days after your period, it may be that your period has not yet ended completely. Because there is a small amount of bleeding mixed with vaginal discharge, it is easy to appear brown. This is often caused by low estrogen levels in the body after the end of menstruation and slow growth of the endometrium, which is often a sign of poor ovarian function. You can do six hormone tests on the third day of menstruation. If the estrogen level is low, you should pay attention to timely replenishment. If it is caused by gynecological inflammation, you should give antibiotics in time.

How to get pregnant with irregular menstruation

How to get pregnant if you have irregular menstruation? It is more difficult for women with irregular menstruation to conceive. It is recommended to first identify the cause, regulate the body, then find the ovulation period, and prepare for pregnancy in a targeted manner to increase the success rate of pregnancy. You can test ovulation by the following methods: Ovulation test strips to monitor ovulation. Use ovulation test strips to measure ovulation. If the test line is stronger than or the same as the standard line, it means ovulation is about to occur. However, the ovulation test strips on the market have different setting standards, and each person's situation is different, so using only one test strip may result in continuous positive results, or no positive results. Therefore, you can use multiple brands of test strips together to increase accuracy. Measure your basal body temperature. Measuring basal body temperature can help you accurately determine your ovulation period. Basal body temperature measurement refers to the oral body temperature measured after 6-8 hours of sleep, when you wake up and do not engage in any activities (such as talking, eating or getting up, etc.). The temperature records measured by date are connected into a curve, which is called the basal body temperature curve. The normal basal body temperature curve for ovulation is a biphasic curve with obvious high temperature and low temperature areas. Generally speaking, ovulation occurs on the day when your basal body temperature is lowest. Basal body temperature rises within 24-48 hours after ovulation. Progesterone levels were measured one week after ovulation. In a normal female menstrual cycle, the progesterone level in the follicular phase before ovulation is low, less than 2 ng/ml. After ovulation, the corpus luteum of the ovary produces a large amount of progesterone, and the progesterone concentration in the blood rises rapidly. When the corpus luteum matures, which is about seven days after ovulation, the blood progesterone concentration reaches a peak, which can reach 15-32.2 ng/ml or higher, and then continues to decline, returning to the lowest level in the entire menstrual cycle before the menstrual period.
