WHAT DOES STRONG BROWN DISCHARGE MEAN in the middle of your cycle?

Causes of spotting in the middle of the cycle

Sometimes minor spotting appears due to microtrauma of internal organs. For example, damage to the vagina due to insufficient lubrication during sex. In such cases, eliminating the causative factor will relieve the unpleasant symptom.

If discharge appears regularly, on strictly defined days, it means that it is associated with hormonal levels. In such cases, the help of a gynecologist alone is not enough. You should consult an endocrinologist.

Brown discharge on day 10 of the cycle

The appearance of secretion 10 days - 2 weeks after menstruation does not always indicate pathology. Their causes may be:

• ovulation;
• premenopause – typical for women after 45 years of age, characterized by active hormonal changes in the body;
• taking contraceptives and other drugs containing sex hormones;
• pregnancy.

Brown discharge on day 14 of the cycle

Brown discharge during ovulation in the middle of the cycle is normal. This occurs due to the rupture of the follicle in the ovary and the release of the egg from it. You should not see a doctor if:

• the secretion is secreted for no more than 3 days;
• it is meager;
• has no smell;
• not accompanied by pain, itching or other unpleasant sensations.

Brown discharge on day 20 of the cycle

Brown discharge after ovulation and before menstruation is a sign of hormonal disorders. One option is endometriosis. With this disease, the cells of the inner layer of the uterus (endometrium) grow outside the organ cavity (in the muscle layer, ovaries, peritoneum). In addition to the presence of secretions, the woman suffers from pain in the lower abdomen and heavy painful menstruation.

Symptoms of spotting on day 10

Asymptomatic spotting does not bother all women, so, as a rule, many do not seek help from a specialist. Often, when pathology becomes the cause of bleeding in the middle of the cycle, symptoms arise that significantly worsen the woman’s condition.

So the symptoms of pathology along with bleeding can be:

• Pain in the abdominal area and radiating to the lower back,
• Increased body temperature
• Nausea and vomiting,
• General weakness of the body.

Bleeding for more than two days and in large volumes is a reason for panic. Typically, heavy bleeding is a sign of uterine disease. It is impossible to identify the problem based on bleeding symptoms alone.

A woman is recommended to visit not only a gynecologist, but also an endocrinologist. Treatment is carried out according to an individual course.

Discharge on the 10th day after conception is very dangerous and may indicate the onset of spontaneous miscarriage and endometrial detachment. The inflammatory process in the internal organs of a woman’s reproductive system can also provoke bleeding of varying degrees.

If discharge with blood appears 10 days after conception, then it is absolutely impossible to delay visiting a doctor, as a very dangerous condition may develop - an ectopic pregnancy. Early contact with a gynecologist will help preserve the fallopian tubes and a woman’s reproductive health.

Types of brown discharge between periods

Just by the appearance of the discharge you can understand its approximate cause. The secretion from the genitals can be dark or light brown, scanty or abundant. It may be accompanied by nagging pain or be completely painless. In certain diseases, brown spotting in the middle of the cycle contains blood impurities. Sometimes a girl is bothered by itching.

Dark brown discharge mid-cycle

Brown spotting mid-cycle may occur in women taking combined oral contraceptives. The secretion is not abundant, it can be light or darker. The lighter the shade, the less blood is released. This symptom is more favorable.

A dark brown secretion when taking birth control is a reason to contact a gynecologist. He will order tests to check the woman’s hormonal levels and decide on the advisability of replacing the contraceptive.

The appearance of secretion clearly in the middle of menstruation indicates a connection between the symptom and ovulation. One of the diseases that leads to the formation of a dark brown secretion at the time of ovulation is an ovarian cyst. The disease is characterized by the presence of a cavity in one or two uterine appendages. This is manifested by disruption of the ovary, in particular, failure of ovulation.

Light brown discharge mid-cycle

As noted above, a light brown secretion appears when taking oral contraceptives. Normally, spotting goes away after a couple of menstrual cycles as the body adapts to the pills.

Light vaginal secretions are the first sign of pregnancy for many women. It appears when the fertilized egg attaches to the wall of the uterus. As a rule, this occurs on the 9th day after conception. But the time frame can vary from a week to 23 days.

Scanty brown discharge mid-cycle

The cause of spotting between periods can be inflammatory diseases of the uterus and its appendages. Such pathologies include:

• endometritis - inflammation of the inner layer of the uterine wall;
• salpingitis - an inflammatory process in the fallopian tubes;
• colpitis – pathology of the cervix;
• adnexitis - inflammation of the ovaries.

Diseases develop due to the penetration of pathogenic microorganisms into the uterus and appendage: staphylococci, E. coli, streptococci.

Taking antibiotics as prescribed by a gynecologist will get rid of the disease in 1-2 weeks, depending on how advanced the process is.

Heavy brown discharge mid-cycle

Heavy discharge two weeks before menstruation is normal for some women. This is a sign of impending ovulation. But such a symptom is very rare. Most often, the discharge takes the form of spotting rather than heavy bleeding.

Heavy discharge in most cases is a sign of a space-occupying formation in the cavity or cervix, which is actively supplied with blood: fibroids (benign tumor), polyps, ectopic development of the fetus.

Brown discharge in the middle of the cycle without pain

The cause of spotting in the middle of the cycle without pain is most often pregnancy. Scanty discharge appears due to implantation of the fertilized egg into the uterine wall. This is a natural process. It is needed to attach the embryo to the female organ for its further growth and development.

During the normal course of pregnancy, brown discharge is sporadic and scanty. If it smears for a long time or the abundance of secretions increases, you need to urgently consult a gynecologist! Such discharge is a sign of progesterone hormone deficiency. As a result, the endometrium is rejected and a miscarriage occurs.

Brown discharge in the middle of the cycle and pulling

Dark discharge mid-cycle may be a sign of endometriosis. The secret appears regularly, every month. In this case, it is accompanied by nagging painful sensations in the lower abdomen. The pain radiates to the lower back, intensifies before menstruation.

A girl with endometriosis is bothered by painful, heavy periods. Unpleasant sensations appear during sexual intercourse, urination and defecation.

This disease must be diagnosed as early as possible. Ultrasound examination (ultrasound) and determination of the level of hormones in the blood will help with this. The most serious complication of endometriosis is infertility.

Brown discharge mid-cycle with odor

Infectious diseases of the reproductive system are one of the causes of spotting in the middle of the cycle, accompanied by a strong unpleasant odor. It resembles rotten fish. The secret can be of different colors. Brown is one of the options. With trichomoniasis, the discharge has one very characteristic feature. They have a foamy appearance.

Trichomoniasis, genital herpes, syphilis, gonorrhea - all these diseases are sexually transmitted. It is simple to prevent their development - you need to use barrier contraception during sexual intercourse. A condom is one of the most accessible and effective methods.

Signs of the disease

Pathological processes in the body, accompanied by bleeding, occur against the background of pain and other unpleasant symptoms:

• Colpitis. Inflammation of the vaginal mucosa. Characterized by blood in the discharge. Associated symptoms: itching and burning; lower abdominal pain; hyperemia of the mucous membranes; painful urination.
• Cervical erosion. The formation of ulcers and erosions on the uterine lining, which bleed after mechanical damage. Mucus mixed with blood is released, pain appears in the lower abdomen during sexual intercourse.
• Ectopic pregnancy. Appears after some delay in menstruation. It involves the attachment of the fertilized egg to the wall of the fallopian tube. The first symptoms are spotting dark brown discharge in women and severe pain in the lower abdomen.
• Inflammation of the urinary system. Infections of the kidneys, bladder and urethra are accompanied by pain in the lower back and lower abdomen. Patients suffer from a frequent urge to urinate and a feeling of incomplete emptying of the bladder. Blood is excreted in urine. A brown tint also appears in vaginal mucus.
• Endometrial pathologies. Diseases affecting the inner layer of the uterus are accompanied by the growth of the endometrium. The tissues peel off or form polyps. During the intermenstrual period, discharge mixed with blood appears. Menses are long and heavy, with clots. Sometimes there is pain in the abdomen.
• Uterine fibroids. Benign tumor of the muscular layer of the reproductive organ. Its characteristic intermenstrual bleeding causes brown vaginal discharge. Menstruation is heavy and painful. The cycle is broken. A large tumor puts pressure on the bladder and intestines, causing constipation and a frequent urge to urinate.

Brown discharge in women is often not a sign of pathology. If they are short-lived and not accompanied by pain, there is no need to worry. The regular appearance of mucus with a brown tint and pain should alert you. In this case, you should not delay your visit to the gynecologist.

When is brown discharge normal?

Brown secretion from the vagina does not always indicate pathology. In a woman’s body, the concentration of hormone levels constantly changes. And the appearance of a scanty, light brown secretion reflects these changes. Here is a complete list of conditions and processes in the body that may be accompanied by discharge:

• ovulation;
• pregnancy;
• premenopause and menopause;
• starting to take hormonal medications;
• the formation of menstruation in young girls;
• physical overload;
• stressful conditions;
• sudden change in body weight.

In the case of physical or mental overload, timely elimination of the causative factor will restore the menstrual cycle. The same is true with changes in body weight.

Signs of pathology

In what cases is it necessary to urgently consult a gynecologist? You should sound the alarm if brown discharge is accompanied by the following symptoms:

• dark, almost black color;
• there are admixtures of fresh blood or clots;
• pain in the lower abdomen, pelvic area, lower back;
• unpleasant odor, burning or itching;
• change in the nature of menstruation: painful, heavy periods;
• daubing lasts longer than 3 days;
• The woman’s general well-being worsens.

Recommendations from gynecologists

Obstetricians-gynecologists recommend that you consult a doctor if you have any new discharge from the genitals. This also applies to changing the nature of the old secret. Timely diagnosis of the disease will shorten the duration of treatment and protect against serious complications: infertility, massive blood loss.

With early treatment for cervical cancer, the five-year survival rate is 8-9 out of 10 people. And the mortality rate from this disease is increasing. This is due to women’s late referral to a specialist, which leads to untimely diagnosis.

Intermenstrual bleeding: normal or pathological

Scanty bleeding of brown or dark red color during the intermenstrual phase can appear in practically healthy representatives of the fair sex. When does this happen? Let's consider the situations.

• 3-4 days before the onset of menstruation, a woman may experience spotting, which is a sign of approaching menstruation.
• In the first 1-2 days after your period, there may also be a slight bloody discharge as the uterus gets rid of the remaining menstrual blood.
• Women taking oral hormonal contraceptives may experience slight brown discharge on the 14th-15th day of the cycle.
• After sex, if a woman has not had intimate relations for a long time and the Bartholin glands have not secreted enough mucus, a little blood may be released due to microtrauma of the vaginal mucous epithelium.
• After the first sexual intercourse, when the hymen ruptures, the girl may experience bleeding for some time after intimacy.

In all other cases, the appearance of blood between periods is considered a pathology. A sign of the disease may be a combination of bloody discharge with pain in the lower abdomen, fever, itching in the vagina, pain during and after sex.

You should also visit a specialist if you are constantly bothered by brown, dark or bloody discharge after sex.

In premenopause, liquid brown spotting bothers women due to hormonal imbalances, which is a natural process of aging in the female body. Such bleeding most often appears against the background of a failure in the timing of ovulation, as a result of which the cycle changes. Most often, bleeding occurs in women after a long delay in menstruation, and can recur for several weeks.

In addition to the above, brown or bloody discharge in women who have been in menopause for more than a year may indicate pathology.

Causes of intermenstrual metrorrhagia

The appearance of intermenstrual metrorrhagia (bleeding) is due to both physiological and pathological reasons.

The norm is light bleeding between periods, without inflammatory symptoms (unpleasant odor, itching, abdominal pain, lower back pain).

The following factors can be considered physiological reasons:

• an increase in the level of lutein-stimulating hormone (LH) and estrogen, which are responsible for the release of the egg from the ovary. Therefore, bloody discharge may be a sign of the egg’s readiness to “reproduce”;
• too active sexual pleasures, inappropriate position during sexual intercourse, or the partner’s genital organ is too large, as a result of which the cervix and vaginal mucosa are injured. If such discharge is observed constantly after sex, it is necessary to consult a gynecologist, since sometimes this is the first and only manifestation of pathologies such as cervical cancer, vaginal neoplasms and cervical erosion;
• brown or bloody discharge in the middle of the cycle is a sign of pregnancy. During the attachment of a fertilized egg to the endometrium, some women secrete a small amount of bloody fluid. Metrorrhagia at other stages of pregnancy is an alarming signal and requires immediate medical attention, as it may be the first sign of miscarriage, premature birth, placental abruption, etc.

Normally, such discharge becomes noticeable only during washing or other hygiene procedures, that is, it should not smear the underwear.

Also, the appearance of discharge during the intermenstrual period often indicates the presence of diseases. Let's look at them.

• Inflammation of the endometrium. This pathology is characterized by inflammation of the inner layer of the uterus, which develops due to the penetration of pathogenic microorganisms into the uterus. Infection of the endometrium can occur during medical procedures on the uterus (curettage, vacuum extraction of the fertilized egg, probing of the uterine cavity, etc.) if they were performed without observing sanitary and epidemiological standards. In addition, endometritis may appear after childbirth. The discharge can be either bloody or purulent in nature with a foul odor or contain mucus. The patient is also worried about increased body temperature, pain in the lower abdomen, general weakness, chills, and increased sweating.
• Endometrial polyps. The occurrence of polyps is facilitated by curettage of the uterine cavity and cesarean section.
• Incorrectly selected doses of hormonal contraceptives. An inadequate dose of hormonal contraceptives can cause hormonal imbalance in the body, and this, in turn, causes metrorrhagia.
• Infectious processes in the vagina and cervix. The presence of inflammation inside the vagina and cervix can become an obstacle to the release of menstrual blood, which will continue to be released even during the menstrual period.
• Hormonal disbalance. The menstrual cycle is regulated by sex hormones. Each phase of the cycle is characterized by its own hormone, so if there is a hormonal imbalance, menstruation can occur even in the middle of the cycle.
• Endometriosis. This disease is characterized by the appearance of endometrial foci in places where it should not be - the cervix, vaginal walls, external genitalia, etc.
• Intrauterine contraception (spirals). This contraceptive increases the risk of endometrial inflammation, and, accordingly, the appearance of spotting during the intermenstrual period.
• Benign and malignant neoplasms of the uterine walls (uterine fibroids and fibroids, cancer of the uterus and its cervix).
• Psycho-emotional shock. Severe stress can affect a woman’s hormonal background, causing it to malfunction. In addition, stress can contribute to the exacerbation of chronic diseases of the reproductive system, which will become a provoking factor for intermenstrual bleeding.

Diagnostics

If there is regular and prolonged intermenstrual bleeding, the gynecologist will definitely prescribe a series of studies that will help determine the cause of the menstrual irregularity.

The following methods can be used in the diagnosis of menstrual disorders:

• gynecological examination of the vagina and cervix using speculum;
• colposcopy - examination of the cervix using a special device - a colposcope;
• vaginal smear for microflora;
• cervical smear for cytological examination;
• general clinical blood test;
• blood test for sex hormonal panel;
• blood test for the Wasserman reaction (detection of antibodies to the causative agent of syphilis);
• tissue sampling for histological examination;
• ultrasound examination of the pelvic organs, including transvaginal or transrectal;
• blood test for HIV;
• diagnostic curettage of the uterine cavity with further histological analysis of the material and others.

Thus, only an experienced specialist - a gynecologist - can correctly determine the cause of intermenstrual bleeding. In this case, we do not recommend engaging in self-diagnosis and self-medication, since such amateur activities can lead to irreversible consequences for health. After all, the choice of treatment method directly depends on the causative factor.

Let us remind you once again that every healthy woman should visit a gynecologist for a preventive examination every six months.

Throughout her reproductive age, a woman is accompanied by various vaginal discharges associated both with the physiological state of the body and with the presence of gynecological pathologies. Often representatives of the fairer sex experience spotting during different periods of the menstrual cycle, but most of all they are interested in the question of what such a symptom means in the middle. We'll talk about this in this article.

Types of spotting

To understand the reasons for the occurrence of the phenomenon, you need to understand what kind of spotting it is in the middle of the cycle. This is what is called scanty mucous blood discharge from the vagina.

The basis of such secretions contains a mucous secretion produced by the glands of the female genital organs. For various reasons, a certain amount of blood enters it, which, when released, mixes with mucus and oxygen, acquiring a certain shade. It all depends on where exactly the blood has clotted, what its composition is, the content of the mucous secretion, and the characteristics of the body.

This mucus is produced in moderate quantities and has such a consistency that when it gets on a panty liner or underwear, it quickly spreads and is absorbed, creating the effect of unevenly smeared stains. You can see their photos below.

Pink discharge with blood Brown discharge Light red discharge Spotting creamy discharge

They occur at the end of the follicular, throughout the ovulatory and early luteal phases of the menstrual cycle. It can be thick white, cream, liquid pink, dark brown, brown, light brown vaginal discharge. Normally there are few of them, they are odorless and are not accompanied by unpleasant sensations.

Creamy, yellow, curdled, stretchy, bloody, profuse, dark, watery, unpleasant-smelling discharge, accompanied by pain in the lower abdomen, itching, weakness and other inconvenient symptoms, indicate the pathological etymology of such bleeding.

Types of spotting

In order to understand the reasons for the appearance of spotting, you need to understand what kind of blood discharge it is in the middle of the cycle. Such secretions are called scanty mucous secretions from the female genital organs.

At the base of such secretions is mucous secretion, which is produced by the glands of the female reproductive system. For various reasons, a certain amount of blood enters it, which, when released, mixes with the mucous component and oxygen, acquiring a certain color. This will depend on exactly where the blood has clotted, what its structure is, the presence of mucus, and the characteristic features of the body.

This mucus is produced in moderate volumes and has such a consistency that when it gets on your daily routine or underwear, it quickly spreads and is absorbed, forming the effect of smeared marks.

They occur at the end of the follicular, ovulatory and initial luteal phases of the menstrual cycle. This can be thick white, light brown, pink, cream, dark brown vaginal discharge. In normal values, their quantity is small, they do not have any odor or unpleasant sensations.

Creamy, yellow, dark, watery discharge with an unpleasant odor, which is accompanied by pain in the lower abdomen, irritation, itching, weakness and other symptoms.

Under certain conditions and a woman’s absolute normal state of health, short-term spotting that does not cause unpleasant sensations can be conditionally classified as normal.

Brown, spotting discharge, especially if it occurs constantly and lasts more than a week, is a symptom of significant problems in the body.

They may be classified as violations if:

• They appear after habitual sexual intercourse;
• They are not associated with critical days;
• They are not associated with the use of oral or other contraception;
• Due to the discharge, there is fever, pain in the lower abdomen, irritation and pain in the genitals;
• A woman during menopause and before this has not had her critical days for more than a year;
• Spotting during pregnancy.

Common physiological causes of spotting

Before menstruation and after menstruation, the symptom has a logical explanation. But what does it mean and what are the causes of spotting in the middle of the cycle? Discharges can be physiological or pathological in nature. Let's consider the reasons for the first.

Ovulation

The most common reason, accounting for 80% of cases of spotting, is the ovulatory period. It occurs approximately in the middle of the menstrual cycle. Its duration is up to 3 days. Ovulation itself means the release of a mature egg from the follicle by rupture, during which about 10 ml of follicular fluid comes out of it. When a rupture occurs, small vessels are injured, which is indicated by a small amount of blood. At this time, under the influence of hormones, abundant clear discharge comes out.

Mucous discharge in the middle of the cycle can be slightly sticky and viscous, like snot, bloody, transparent with a streak of blood, or in the form of a brown or pink smear. Closer to the equator of the cycle and after ovulation, spotting whitish, yellowish and even green moderate discharge of a uniform consistency that does not cause discomfort, pain and does not stink is considered normal. Severe vaginal leucorrhoea is a sign of an infectious disease.

Treatment and prevention

If the appearance of spotting in the middle of the menstrual cycle does not cause a woman discomfort and is not accompanied by prolonged and severe pain, she only needs to limit physical activity, increase rest time and avoid stressful situations.

If fever, severe pain, heaviness in the lower abdomen, nausea, itching and burning occur, a consultation with a gynecologist is recommended to make an accurate diagnosis and prescribe appropriate treatment. For diagnostic purposes, the following studies can be carried out:

• examination of female organs;
• cytological, cytogenetic and hormonal studies;
• laparoscopy;
• Ultrasound;
• MRI.

Depending on the disease, appropriate medications are prescribed - hormonal, anti-inflammatory, antiviral and immune agents. To eliminate discomfort and maintain health, patients in especially severe cases resort to surgical intervention to remove foci of the disease.

Spotting due to pathology

Pathological spotting in the middle of the cycle is accompanied by certain symptoms. This may include thick white discharge, yellow discharge with heterogeneous consistency, runny leucorrhoea, spotting that develops into heavy bleeding. They are complemented by: a specific smell, burning and vaginal itching, pain in the lower abdomen, pain in the side radiating to the lower back, fever, nausea, and in advanced cases, vomiting. Such discharges can be conditionally divided into two groups depending on the reason for their appearance.

The first group - caused by uterine pathology

1. Erosion of the uterine cervix is ​​an inflammatory process of tissue, the main symptom of which is periodic bleeding, from spotting to heavy. They are often indicated after sexual intercourse and between menstruation. For many, the pathology is asymptomatic. Erosive destruction of tissue increases the risk of infection. Therapy uses medications, laser, radio waves, cryodestruction, diathermocoagulation, chemical coagulation, and electrical excision. Small affected areas are most often left untreated and monitored periodically.
2. Endometriosis is a pathological benign process of tissue growth outside the uterine lining. It manifests itself as spotting and heavy bleeding, prolonged critical days at the beginning, middle, and end of the cycle, pain in the lower abdomen, shifts in menstruation, and painful sexual intercourse. It can be eliminated by electrotherapy, laser, ultrasound, surgical curettage, and combined treatment with medications.
3. Endometritis is inflammation of the surface layer of the endometrium. Spotting brown, pink, purulent discharge in women, including in the middle of the cycle, is the main designation of pathology. It is characterized by increased temperature, nagging pain in the lower part of the peritoneum, radiating to the side, and painful sexual contact. For treatment, anti-inflammatory and antibacterial tablets or broad-spectrum antibiotics are prescribed.
4. Polyps and neoplasms of various etymologies are characterized by bleeding after menstruation (in the first half of the cycle). Like any pathological changes in uterine tissue, they lead to periodic heavy bleeding. These symptoms are accompanied by pain, general weakness, and nausea. Treatment depends on the etymology and stage of the disease.
5. During pregnancy, brown spotting along with pain and cramps indicate fetal fading, threatened miscarriage, as well as ectopic pregnancy. If a sign is detected, you should immediately consult a doctor to remove the dead embryo to avoid infection of adjacent tissues. Sometimes a fetus with blood leakage can be saved. An ectopic pregnancy must be removed urgently, as it threatens to rupture the fallopian tube.

The second group - provoked by inflammatory processes, urological and infectious diseases

Inflammatory processes in the genitourinary system occur for a number of reasons: complications after a cold, hypothermia, weakened immunity, infection, proliferation of opportunistic bacteria, improper hygiene.

The appearance of copious leucorrhoea, gray, purulent discharge with itching in the vagina, the unpleasant smell of rotten meat, fish, onions and other stench characterizes bacterial vaginosis. The disease relates to inflammation and is transmitted both sexually and develops against the background of the proliferation of opportunistic bacteria living in the microflora. Such symptoms, supplemented by a curdled leucorrhoea and a sour milk smell, indicate candidiasis. Such diseases can generally be treated locally with suppositories and douches.

Infectious diseases, in particular sexually transmitted ones, are indicated by yellow, green, purulent discharge, they stink and appear at any time, either by spotting or by copious mucus secretion. They can be liquid, stretch like snot, or jelly. With such illnesses, the vagina itches, there is a burning sensation and pain when urinating, and the external genitalia become inflamed. Such diseases are treated with antibiotics in combination with anti-inflammatory and other drugs.

Briefly about the main thing

Our small research showed that the topic of spotting in the middle of the cycle is discussed quite often in reviews on the forum and blogs.

The scant bloody discharge described by women, which is spotting in nature, without any foreign odor or accompanying symptoms, is considered normal. But there are also pathological signs that require medical attention.

There is no need to be afraid of visiting a doctor, since statistics show that in 68% of cases the described symptom has a physiological etymology, 40% of them are associated with hormonal changes, and 32% of the total number of women who apply have signs of a pathological nature. Therefore, we can say that it is more likely that the symptom you discovered is not caused by a disease. The probability of a hormonal shift is slightly higher, but if you are approaching 45 years of age, this process is natural in connection with the approaching menopause. At a young age, such a disorder is extremely rare.

Bloody discharge after sex

Bloody discharge after sex is sometimes accompanied by pain. At the same time, the absence of pain does not mean that everything is fine with a woman. If brown or bloody discharge appears every time after sexual intercourse, it may be due to the following diseases:

• Cervical cancer
• Cervical erosion
• Vaginal tumors

In any case, for any brown discharge in the middle of the cycle or between menstruation, you should consult a gynecologist to find out the reason for its appearance. If these are signs of any disease, then you should not hesitate. Because by avoiding a visit to the doctor, a woman can aggravate her condition, miss time, and the disease will be more difficult to eliminate. And self-medication in such cases is unacceptable.
