I had brown blood during my period last week.

About a week after the end of menstruation, there will still be some brown blood secretion, which can be considered as a sign of ovulation bleeding, because some people have slight physiological bleeding during ovulation, which is a normal phenomenon. In addition, it is not ruled out that it is caused by diseases such as uterine inflammation, pelvic inflammation, and vaginal inflammation.

Pathological analysis

Experts point out that abnormal leucorrhea must not be taken lightly. If it is not treated in time and not eradicated, serious sequelae may occur, such as pelvic inflammatory disease, endometritis, etc. In severe cases, terminal illnesses such as vaginal cancer, uterine cancer, and cervical cancer may occur. Most middle-aged women who suffer from cancer do so because they did not pay attention to abnormal leucorrhea when they were young, which caused the disease to worsen.

Diagnostic criteria

Identify gynecological diseases by looking at the color of leucorrhea:

Generally speaking, pathological leucorrhea is mostly inflammatory leucorrhea, leucorrhea caused by tumors and leucorrhea caused by foreign bodies. The following pathological leucorrhea are common symptoms:

●Colorless, transparent, sticky leucorrhea: It is egg white-like and similar in properties to the mucus secreted by the cervical glands during ovulation, but the amount of secretion is significantly increased compared to usual. Generally, the possibility of chronic endocervicitis, ovarian dysfunction, vaginal adenosis, or well-differentiated cervical adenocarcinoma should be considered.

●White or grayish yellow foamy leucorrhea: It is a characteristic of Trichomonas vaginitis and may be accompanied by vulvar itching.

●Curly vaginal discharge: a characteristic of candidal vaginitis, often accompanied by severe vulvar itching or burning pain.

●Gray homogeneous leucorrhea with fishy smell: thin, small to large amounts, unpleasant smell, commonly seen in bacterial vaginosis.

●Purinary leucorrhea: yellow or yellow-green, sticky, and often has a foul odor. It can be caused by acute vaginitis, cervicitis, and endocervicitis caused by bacteria such as Trichomonas or gonococci. Pyometra, cervical cancer, vaginal cancer or foreign objects retained in the vagina can also cause pus-like leucorrhea.

●Bloody leucorrhea: If there is blood mixed in the leucorrhea, cervical cancer, endometrial cancer, cervical polyps or submucosal fibroids should be considered. Insertion of an intrauterine device can also cause bloody leucorrhea.

●Watery leucorrhea: If watery leucorrhea like rice washing water continues to flow out and is accompanied by a foul odor, it is usually due to advanced cervical cancer, vaginal cancer, or submucosal fibroids with infection. If you have intermittent discharge of yellow or red watery vaginal discharge, you should be aware of the possibility of fallopian tube cancer.

●Cheese-like leucorrhea: The leucorrhea is thick, slightly sweet, and there is some itching in the vulva. You should be aware of the possibility of Candida infection.

●Yellow-green leucorrhea: The leucorrhea is thin and contains foam, has a foul odor, and is often accompanied by vaginal itching. Vaginal Trichomonas infection can cause yellow-green leucorrhea.
