I have a bit of a dilemma. I'm actually more paranoid. This is the situation, I last had my period on Jan 18 and had unprotective sex (just started to get sexual active) on Jan 22 than had brown spotting on Jan 25, only lasted a day. My period came again on Feb 14 and it was brown at first and started to turn red and flow heavy than it slowed down by Feb 16 and was brown. There's clots sometimes but than during a regular period theres always some but not much. Usually it flows heavy for longer but than it always varies. I've had a lot of stress lately, haven't slept a lot due to being busy and haven't been drinking water (Just noticed and will change) I haven't had any pregnancy symptoms.
Is this a concern? I will be less stressed and start drinking water and have been sleeping a lot lately? Could this be something else?

Brown blood is old blood...blood that has been sitting. Red blood is fresh blood. If you have been having unusual cramping or pain, you should call your doctor. How big are the clots? Clots generally are not unusual but should also be brought up in yor consultation. Yes, stress will definitely play a role in a female's menstrual cycle but get checked out, just in case.

This happens to me all the time and I asked my doctor because I was scared. Actually there is still blood "left over" from your period and having intercourse brought some out and then it comes all out the first couple days of your next cycle. This is very normal the doc said and its not a problem. If you are worried call a clinic or a doc. just to give ya piece of mind.

brown discharge happens sometimes it is the shedding of the lining of your uterus. I get it every couple of months just before and a few days after my period and occasionally mid cycle..
don't have unprotected sex!! your asking for pregnancy and STD's please be careful

it is always a good thing to drink water when you have it.....always keep hydrated...brown is normal but always check in with a doctor at least when you think you should. one of my friends had cramps and it wasnt good she had to go to the hospital....always good to stay healthy and swallow vitamins.

Yes, our bodies are strange. It's just cleaning itself out.
