Causes Of Brown Spots Outside Of Menstruation?
at night. I want to ask. I had my period on January 21, 2018 and my period returned on February 6, 2018. The blood that came out was a little and was brown in color. Is that normal or not? Thank you

Hi Novi,
At this time maybe what comes out is spots outside of menstruation. Spots outside of menstruation can be caused by:
Imbalance of reproductive hormones Stress or fatigue Side effects of using birth control, especially the hormonal type Infections of the cervix (cervicitis) or vagina (vaginitis) Pelvic inflammation Sexually transmitted infections, such as chlamydia, gonorrhea Early signs of pregnancy (Hartmann's sign) Presence of uterine polyps, myomas or other causes other Injuries due to friction during sexual intercourse
If this is the first time you have experienced spotting outside of your period and there are no other complaints, you don't need to worry. But if there are complaints such as lower abdominal pain, pain during sexual intercourse, smelly vaginal discharge, itching, or other complaints, immediately go to a gynecologist for further examination. At this time you can monitor bleeding by wearing a pad and resting.
The normal menstrual cycle is 21-35 days. In order to have regular menstruation, you can try running a healthy lifestyle, namely eating healthy foods with balanced nutrition, exercising regularly, maintaining an ideal body weight, controlling stress and getting enough rest.
