Suggest Remedy For Brown Colored And Irregular Periods

Hello, my sister has normal periods that last 7 days. last month she had one but it only lasted 4 days, then 2 weeks later she was spotting a dark brown blood. Now she started her period again, normal time, but shes bleeding dark brown. Is there any reason she should be concerned about the color of the blood or the duration of her period?

HI,
I understand your concern.
There are various causes or such irregularity of menses like-convalescence from a disease,physical or psychological stress,menopause , hormonal imbalance, PCOD ,thretend abortion , fibroids ETC.
If your sister does not have any other complaint, & this is the single episode,let her Take rest, have a nutritious diet, healthy lifestyle & observe it for one more month,This may resolve naturally& followed by normal cycle later.
- But if it repeats again, she needs consultation of a gynecologist.For examination & investigations followed by specific treatment.
Thanks
