A member asked:

35 weeks pregnant. i started to get a small amount of brown discharge and today i had a brown mucus like come out. should i be concerned?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Brien discharge : This could be related to cervical ripening, recent intercourse, a recent vaginal exam. As long as there is no recent trauma or a history of previa it should be ok... Brown discharge indicates old blood...
