A member asked:
I haven't had a period for 6 months, recently had light pain in my ovary now i have heavy dark brown discharge with clots. could it be my period?

Irregular periods.: This could be a period, but the biggest concern here is that you haven't had one in six months. You could have a hormonal or nutritional imbalance that needs to be evaluated by a doctor. The pain could be related to ovulation.
