Periods in general are painful, the dark brown tarry type of blood could be "old blood" from your last period. This is how it works, Every month your body is putting a lining on your endometruim (the lining of your uterus) to prepare for pregnancy, when you ovulate about the 14th day after the 1st day of your period, if you conceive it will stay there and your hormone levels elevate so that it does stay intact. However, if you don't get pregnant then your body will release the lining, causing the bleeding and discomfort. Because our body doesn't always flush itself completely this might result in the brownish stuff you are getting. From experience you are either having this at the beginning or towards the end of your period. You may want to be screen for endometriosis too. Although I am certain that you are going through what I just mentioned, you should see a Dr, if you feel worse or aren't comfortable with any of our responses
Hope this helps

How long have you been getting your period? It's normal during the first three years or so to have irregular periods, varying in color. Is this a pattern with your periods? Do you experience contant pain or does it get better with time? Is it crampy pain or sharp pain? Crampy pain is normal. Does your blood yet redder further into your period? It's normal for it to be dark brown at first, but not during your entire period.
These are things your doctor will want to ask you, so make an appointment and discuss everything with him/her. It's most likely nothing or a simple infection, but only your doctor will know for sure, and you'll feel better afterward.
Also, I think it's really rude that some people posted "Ew" your your question. People ask questions to find help and a direction, and that was inappropiate of them, especially when you're concerned about your health and well-being. I hope this information helps you.
Good luck, hun.

Hi, its pretty normal to get the brown discharge at the beginning and end of a period but to have it all the way through may be a bit of a concern.
Have your periods always been like this? or has it come on sudden, if so, it could be a wee change or upset in your hormonal pattern and may go back to normal next cycle but I think its always wise to consult your GP or family planning clinic, always better to be safe than sorry and it will at least put your mind at rest.
Good luck

If you are worried seek medical help, this is very important for your health.
Check out on the web "painful periods" too, this may offer some kind of help before seeing your Doctor.
Don't be shy to go, take along a friend for some moral support, I know how embarrassing seeing our Doctor can be for this worry but its better to be safe.
All the best.

You should see a doctor. A little of the brown stuff is ok. I take it that you don't have red at any time. Beings there is pain as well, I say you have a problem. Don't put off getting it checked out! It could save your life.

See your GP. going on the pill might help, or he/she will be able to suggest alternatives.
