Women/teen health question?

I have had brown vaginal discharge yesterday and today and i looked it up online and it said that it was normal to have this after your period.. sometimes i get like stretchy clear discharge and it said that occurs during your period, and i also get clear and watery and it says that occurs at different times during your cycle.. the only problem is i haven't ever had my period, so why would i be getting all these things that come with your period,without the period? please help!

Actually, that brown discharge may infact have been a period. I remember when I first got mine, it was very short - only 2 days or so and it was not heavy at all, so it was almost like spotting. You might want to wait another month and see if it happens again. If so, maybe you'd like to visit a gynecologist and have them talk you through it.

it means you're gonna get your . soon

it could mean that you are about to get your period soon

It's normal to start seeing some of this before you get your period. I would imagine you'll be starting your cycle within the next few months. Don't worry too much about it.

You might be starting to get your period. Dont worry its normal.

your period is starting.

hello..i am 14 and the thing is your body is getting ready for changes like a period (you may have it soon)so keep a pad with you all of the time...good luck!!!

It could be that was your first period, it was just really really light. I remember my first period was really light too. However, it could also signal that you will be getting your period. Sometimes when I am ovulating (2 weeks after my period) I can spot (which is that brownish discharge). Best advice is to wait and see if you get your period. Either way, it is normal and don't worry too much about it.

You may be getting your period soon. It could be "spotting" which is just spots of blood coming out before the whole period starts. Talk to your parents, they may take you to a doctor. Don't be embarrassed or anything because literally every women goes through something like this, you get used to talking to your mom or your doctor about things like this. Hope this helps!

Your hormones are working even if you haven't gotten your period yet. You probably will soon.

your body is getting ready to start for its period

U might be starting 2 ovulate. That is what happened 2 me. first u dischrge brown stuff, then about a few months or even weeks later, u get your period. it varies how long for different people. good luck =].

How old are you? It'll help me answer you :)
If you don't want to reply then my guess is that your body is preparing for you to start your period. Ask your mum for more advice.

don't worry, your probably getting ready to start. If you have been sexually active you may want to let your mom know so she can take you to the doctor to make sure nothing wrong (like being pregnant). But it's normal..

Ok calm down.. Anyone has this before they start there period. it can happen anytime for 6 months to 3 years. to stay clean and dry try pantieliners. it is normal for it to look differnet but if it changes color or has a odor contact a doctor it could be an infetion. That is just one of the many signs you will be starting your period. That is one of the last signs besides underarm hair..Good luck( i have the same thing and i am 12 and had it for two years.)

You don't say how old you are (or how young, either), but that brown stuff IS more than likely your period. How long does it usually last?

The stretchy, clear mucous is called "Spinbarkeit Mucous". It is a sign that you are at your most fertile when it appears.

The "clear and watery stuff" is completely normal and goes on all the rest of the time for most women. The vagina has the ability to keep itself at a fairly constant pH and to clean itself as well, so it's important not to mess with that balance, or to think of it as "dirty" or "unclean".

Depending upon your age (and who you talk to), not menstruating can be a serious problem. It may be saying that your BMI is too low for you to actually begin and complete the process of menstruation, or that your hormones are either too low or out of balance. Pls. write back and give your age, ht, wt. It will allow us to have a more clear picture of exactly what's what.

Ooops, I just reread all your words, and you do say "teen" up there at the top. So sorry.

It's really important that you realize even if you haven't gotten what you think should look like a period, that you can still get pregnant, esp. given your discussion of "spin" and "the brown discharge". Always use protection, please!

I also think it would be an excellent idea for you to go visit an OB/Gyn and/or a midwife (They practice well-woman gynecology, and are almost always wonderful and sympathetic women who are really good at education.) this month. It seems you have a lot of questions about "What's normal?" and "What's going on with my body right now?". I think it's really important for any woman to have an expert she can talk to and raise any question or issue with. Do you have medical insurance? Even if you don't, there are still ways to get good information and preventative healthcare.

Many blessings upon you, dear one, as you begin this journey of being a woman. It's quite the trip!
