A member asked:
I am ttc. a week before my period was due i had light blood. when period was due i had brown blood which turned to black for 7 days. is this my period?

Most likely yes: [i am unsure what "ttc" means]. It may be that your period occurred slightly earlier than the anticipated date. Seemingly, some of the blood was retained, and effectively "aged" with discoloration, over the succeeding days. If this is a one-off occurrence, there may not be that much concern. Monitor future menses, and consult with ob/gyn or family doctor, if it recurs.
