What are the reasons for leukorrhea being brown and containing dirt?

Patient's question:

I had my period on the 17th of last month. From the 8th of this month to today, I have been experiencing slightly brownish vaginal discharge with some impure substances. What could be the reason for this? What tests should I undergo?

Doctor's answer:

There are mainly two reasons for brownish leukorrhea: one is ovulation bleeding, and the other is cervical erosion, which can also cause abnormal bleeding. Generally, ovulation bleeding occurs in the middle of the menstrual cycle. It is recommended to go to the hospital for examination to identify the cause of bleeding. If the bleeding is affected by disease factors, timely treatment is needed. During the bleeding period, attention should be paid to hygiene and sexual intercourse should be avoided.
