A member asked:

Vaginal bleeding dark brown with an odor, second period for the month. under a lot of stress?

Sounds like: The dark brown color means old blood and this sounds more like old bloody discharge than a new period. My concern is the odor. PID or endometritis might cause the same brown discharge with odor, so probably best to have a gyn evaluate you.

Irreg period: dark brown vaginal bleeding---especially if you are having abdominal cramping ---can be a sign of pelvic infection------if you not on any birth control you also have too make sure that is not an issue This should be evaluated by your private doctor ASAP---it is true that stress can play a role in your cycle---but should not have any pain or odor
