What is the situation when a woman has coffee-colored white discharge?

Patient's question:

In the past two months, before my period arrived, I started having a little coffee-colored discharge 5 days in advance. Previously, I would only have a small amount of discharge the day before my period and then start having a normal period. Is this a sign of cervical or uterine cancer? I've only had a child for 2 years. What's going on?

Doctor's answer:

Considering the considerations brought about by the interference of internal hormones during the premenstrual period, it is not food for uterine cancer. Always maintain cleanliness and hygiene of the vulva. If necessary, go to the hospital for an abdominal ultrasound and colposcopy to confirm the cause and treat accordingly. Since it cannot be confirmed whether it is cervical cancer or uterine cancer, it is recommended to go to a large hospital's gynecology department for examination, have a hysteroscopy to look for the cause, and make a clear diagnosis for targeted treatment.
