A member asked:
Can a enlarged fibroid cause your period to be irregular and brown in color? what is the normal time between periods?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes could be fibroid: Fibroid tumors are well known to cause irregular bleeding which could be brown. The normal menstrual cycle length is 3-5 weeks, but typically is 28 days. If you don't fall in this range, you might want to see your healthcare provider.
