44 Year Old Having Irregular Periods.Brownish Discharge With Foul Smell. Reason?

i am a 44 year old woman whoo recently started having problems with my menstrual cycle. I used to be regular, every 28 days, but now it seems like my period comes whenever it wants. I have skipped months, been 2 weeks late etc. Periods have been scant with blood until this last one which I bled heavy for 6 days! After my periods I get a brown discharge which has a foul odor. Not sure what is going on.

HELLO,
THANKS FOR THE QUERY AND WELCOME TO HCM
IRREGULARITIES OF MENSES COULD OCCUR AS YOU APPROACH THE PRE - MENOPAUSAL AGE.
OBVIOUSLY IM CONCERNED ABOUT THE FOUL SMELLING DISCHARGE AND WOULD SUGGEST YOU VISIT YOUR OBGYN AND GET SPECIAL EVALUATION. YOU WILL BENEFIT FROM VAGINAL EXAMINATIONS,ULTRASOUND SCANS,MENOPAUSAL SCREENING.
THANKS
