We all know that the female body structure is very complex, and each woman has a menstrual cycle. However, many women will find brown discharge before their period, which makes them particularly worried. They don’t know whether this is menstruation or a gynecological disease, or even whether it will affect normal pregnancy. If we want to effectively improve such symptoms, we must grasp the cause. Let’s understand what brown discharge is before menstruation.

What is brown discharge before period?

1. Caused by neuroendocrine dysfunction: mainly due to unstable or defective function of the lower hindbrain-stomach-ovary axis, that is, menstrual disease.

2. Caused by organic diseases or drugs, including local inflammation, tumors and developmental abnormalities of the reproductive organs, malnutrition; intracranial diseases; other endocrine dysfunctions such as thyroid and adrenal cortex dysfunction, diabetes, Sheehan's disease, etc.; liver diseases; blood diseases, etc. Menstrual irregularities may occur in women who use drugs to treat mental illnesses, endocrine preparations, or intrauterine devices for contraception. Certain occupations, such as long-distance runners, are prone to amenorrhea. In addition, some abnormal bleeding during pregnancy is often mistaken for menstrual irregularities.

Reasons for abnormal brown discharge after menstruation:

2-3 days before and after the menstrual period, due to pelvic congestion, vaginal secretions increase, leucorrhea also a lot, sometimes slightly bloody, luteal insufficiency can cause brown discharge after menstruation.

Brown discharge after menstruation may also be a sign of gynecological inflammation. Nanchang Modern Reproductive Hospital has introduced a variety of treatment methods to directly act on the inflamed areas and lesions, promote the repair of damaged tissues, and quickly coagulate the tissues, achieving the effects of anti-inflammation, analgesia, and shortening the treatment course.

If the leucorrhea is dark red (brown), yellow or green, and is often accompanied by symptoms such as general weakness and low fever, it is likely that you have acute vaginitis or cervicitis. Purulence indicates bacterial infection and you should seek medical attention promptly.

To increase your chances of pregnancy, pay attention to the following two points when having sex:

1. Adopt appropriate sexual positions. During the ovulation period, it is best for the woman to adopt the chest-elbow position (the woman kneels on the bed with her head low and hips high, with a quilt under her chest and her hands in front of her head for support, while the man kneels behind the woman). 20 to 30 minutes after ejaculation, the woman returns to lying position to rest. If the woman finds this position tiring, they can change to the man on top and the woman lying on her back. After ejaculation, use a pillow to raise the woman's buttocks and keep the pillow in place for 30 minutes before removing it.

2. Choose sexual intercourse during ovulation. Basal body temperature can be used to help monitor ovulation date. Measure body temperature with a thermometer at 6 to 7 am every day and record it on a curve. Women with regular menstrual cycles ovulate around the 14th day of their menstrual cycle.

The above is an introduction to what brown discharge before menstruation is. I hope it will be helpful to many friends after understanding it. Female friends must pay attention to their physical health in daily life, maintain good living habits, and observe whether there are any abnormalities in their leucorrhea. If necessary, consult a doctor in time.
