A member asked:
Dose it really mean or has side effect if my period is balck or brown?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normal: Having a period be black or brown blood simply means there wasn't much blood, and the blood sat in the uterus a while before coming out. Blood that sits changes color from red to dark red to black over time. So this color is a normal variation.
