Causes of brown discharge and 3 days delay in period - Dr. Sangeeta Gomes

If you have had unprotected intercourse 2 episodes just before the regular menses you cannot be sure that you can get pregnant since ovulation cannot occur 2 days prior to menses. Then coming to the brown staining. This could be just the beginning of the menses, appearing as brown discharge or we have to rule out some other local causes of the cevix like erosion, polyp, certain conditions like urethritis, sever vulvovaginitis, vaginal candidiasis, infection of the Bartholin gland. Coming to the 3days delay in period, I think it is , it is the first episode, you need not worry about it , but if this continues and consecutive menses you find that there is a delay of 4 days, 5 days and 6 – 7 days , then you need to meet the obstetrician to rule out any hormonal imbalance.
