My period is brown.

When a woman's menstrual flow is small and dark brown in color, it is considered abnormal menstruation. In this case, the cause should be found out in time and menstrual regulation treatment should be given as soon as possible to avoid serious impact on health. However, there are many reasons for irregular menstruation. So, why is brown menstruation rare? What are the reasons why dark brown is rare for menstruation?

1. If a woman's menstrual blood is dark brown and in small amounts, it indicates that the menstrual blood has been accumulated in the uterine cavity or the female vagina for a long time and turns dark brown when it is discharged. Most of the causes are related to endocrine disorders. If the body lacks estrogen, the uterine wall cannot shed completely enough, which will result in less menstrual bleeding and darker brown menstrual blood.

2. Some women also have a history of multiple miscarriages and curettage, which may cause serious damage to the uterine wall. The thin uterine wall is the main reason for the small amount of menstrual flow. Dark brown may also occur if a small amount of menstrual discharge from the uterine cavity is blocked. Therefore, women with less menstrual blood volume and abnormal color should also consider whether they have these reasons.

3. Dark brown menstrual blood with a small amount can also be a manifestation of irregular menstruation, and there are many reasons for this type of disease. For example, when there is abnormal function in any part of the female ovary, uterus, pituitary gland, etc., it can cause menstrual disorders, small amount of menstrual blood and changes in the color of menstrual blood. Therefore, if you have abnormal menstrual period changes caused by unclear reasons, you should go to the hospital for a gynecological examination and diagnosis.

If the menstrual blood is dark brown, it means that the menstrual flow is relatively small and accumulates in the female vagina, and turns dark brown as the secretions are discharged. If it is confirmed to be menarche, it may be due to endocrine reasons, resulting in poor ovulation or no ovulation, the body lacks estrogen, and cannot make the uterine wall completely fall off, resulting in brown menstruation.

If there is an intrauterine operation, such as abortion curettage, it is necessary to check whether the uterine wall is damaged, resulting in less menstrual blood and dark brown color. If it is not certain whether it is menarche and brown discharge appears in the vagina, you need to go to the gynecology department of a tertiary hospital for a blood test to check the human chorionic gonadotropin to rule out pregnancy. During pregnancy, you may experience a small amount of submembranous bleeding, which may also turn into dark brown vaginal bleeding.
