What does dark red blood spotting means along with brown colored gummy substance?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normal : Your profile says you are a man, but I'm answering this as if you were a woman. Dark blood is just old blood. Nothing to worry about and typically doesn't mean anything's wrong. The thick gummy substance is typical for cervical mucous. Also normal. If worried could have infection, see doctor for evaluation
