Patient's question:

I always have brown discharge after my period, for some reason, usually normal, is it a gynecological condition?

Hello, brown vaginal discharge can occur in two ways: one is pathological, and the other is physiological. The physiological brown discharge is common during the mid-cycle of two menstrual periods, which is the ovulation period, and it is an manifestation of ovulation bleeding. Physiological brown discharge can also be seen one or two days before or after the menstrual period, as a prelude to the onset of menstruation and an indication of incomplete menstrual cleanliness. Pathological brown discharge may suggest gynecological inflammation or certain malignant tumors and lesions. It is recommended to seek medical attention and undergo examination promptly.
