Hello,

Thanks for writing to us.

As you were sexually active, then brown vaginal discharge needs to be concerned. Implantation bleeding (in case of late conception) should be ruled out.

I suggest you to undergo one blood test for beta-hCG and Trans Vaginal ultrasound scan to rule out underlying pathology or product of conception.

Other reasons are endometriosis, old blood, endometrial tissue, hormonal imbalance, stress/ depression, vaginal/ pelvic infection etc.

Please consult with gynecologist for complete health check up with relevant investigation. Take proper medication if required.

Maintain genital hygiene. Avoid mental stress. Good luck.
