A member asked:

What does brown discharge mean a week before your period? it's been going on for 3 days and it just stopped. i have been active with no protection.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Brown discharge: Discharge from the vagina can come from a long list of etiologies. Whenever i encounter a patient in my practice to evaluate for brown d/c, i perform an exam to ensure that it isn't std or sexually related. I then evaluate that it isn't "spotting", or irregular bleeding prior to or just after menses.
