Brownish Discharge After Having Periods. Itching And Irritation In The Vagina. Treatment?

Its been 2 days now since my period has went off. Immediatly after a dark brown/ redish color paste like discharge starts happening. Last month this happened it lasted a week BEFORE my actual period started.It doent have a smell only rediculios itching and irritation that only gets worst when i wash that area. Also, it comes out when i pee and i wear a regular pad throughout the day to catch the old blood. Is this normal for it to burn and itch so badly? This has been going on for approx 3 days now. What should I do??

Hi,
A brown discharge is usually because of your last period, it means that all the endometrial lining didnt exit during that period, that is why you're exiting it now.
As for the burning and itching, they can be caused by several other factors such as-
yeast infection
vaginitis
bacterial vaginosis
so have you been having protected sex or not? If not get a check up done.
I hope this answered your question.
