Suggest Treatment For Very Dark Brown,tar Like Vaginal Discharge

Hi, I am experiencing very dark brown stringy, tar-like discharge all the time except when I am menstruating. I have just moved and do not have a doctor yet. Should I go to the emergency department ? Thank you Mel 38 yrs old mother of 2 (c-sections) 2 miscarriages married losing a lot of hair

Hi,

From the description of the symptoms you have given, it appears that you are experiencing hormone imbalance, perhaps due to stress or some infection or sudden weight changes. Since the discharge has been persisting for some time now, I suggest that you get a proper clinical evaluation and treatment. You need a sonogram of the pelvis, preferably in the trans-vaginal route, urinalysis and hormone assay including thyroid profile along with a pap smear.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Shanti Vennam, OBGYN
