What Are The Reasons For Missing Periods And Dark Brown Colored Discharge With Metallic Smell?
please help I haven't had my period in almost a month my discharge is a dark brown color and has a metallic smell to it. There is no cramping or anything. I did have a period last month I haven't been sexually active for over five months. What could this mean?
Hi, Your description of the symptoms suggests the possibility of hormone imbalance and a breakthrough bleeding. Please see a specialist immediately and get a proper clinical exam. A sonogram of the pelvis, if possible through the trans-vaginal method, will help to know the endometrial status and also if there are any cysts, fibroids etc. A hormone profile, blood counts and urinalysis are also needed. Further management can be planned accordingly. Please maintain a healthy weight and a healthy diet. Take care.
