Hello doctor, The period was two days late. When it started, it was watery. Then on the second day, it had some clots. Then it thinned up again and ended with brown blood. Why?
Hello. How are you doing? The possibilities for this periods are: For normal bleeding, you need a normal hormonal support to the endometrium, ovulation and the proper and complete bleeding. But, in your history I note your BMI (body mass index) is very high, Your expected weight is 52 to 56 kg. This extra fat is converted to hormones in the body which alters the normal hormone balance, leading to the poor formation and improper bleeding, which can appear as such a brown discharge, fleshy mass, and mucoid discharge. This needs only weight reduction by at least four to six kg. Any sudden increase or decrease in weight can affect these hormones. Another possibility is an infection around the uterus. If you have any yellowish or white or grayish discharge with or without itching or foul smell especially after sex and periods, pain in the lower abdomen before periods, feverish feeling, this could be an infection in the inner lining. So, the bleeding will be lesser in amount with fleshy masses, brownish and painful. This needs an evaluation by a gynecologist and a good course of antibiotics and antifungal medicines for you and your partner. Periods plus or minus seven days the expected date is normal, so two days is alright. Hope I have clarified your query. Do write back if any more queries.
