Abnormal period?

Question

Hi
I've had my period since i was 12 and i'm now 22. My period was heavy up (as in normal for me) until these past to months.I get the cramps and gas previous to my period then it comes and its only almost like discharge but a redish browish colour. I'm not to sure what it means. I use to get that at the end of my cycle but never in the beginning or in the middle. Also it only lasts for 2 or 3 days.
I mean i was stressed out about a month ago but can it still affect my period a month after?

Thanks

It is normal to have brownish blood at the beginning of the period too. It's because the body is trying to get rid of old blood. As for the stress factor, yes, it can affect a period even a month after.

But I would also recommend talking to your dr to see if maybe an infection could be going on as well to be on the safe side.
