A member asked:

Hello doctor, i have had my period from 7th april to 13th april. but on 19th april up till today, i have noticed brown discharge that appears, it is not a lot, just one line of that. is this a cause of concern? there are no other pains though.

Most likely not: If your period started on April 7 and the brown discharge started April 19 (day 13) the most likely cause is ovulation. Some women experience spotting at mid-cycle due to the hormonal swings associated with ovulation every month, others only occasionally and still others never experience it. If you start having pain or the discharge develops a foul odor, you do need to be seen and have it checked
