Suggest Treatment For Clear Mucus Discharge Before Periods

I had my period 1 week a go. After 1 day after my cycle was done I started noticing brown mucus discharge when I went pee and wiped. Today the discharge was pink. I m 37 years old and I feel no pain. I m very regular on my period and this had never happened before. I would only get clear mucus discharge. Can someone please tell me if I need to be worried. I can t see a doctor until next week

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello!
There are various hormonal changes that occur in a woman's body. Brownish/ pinkish discharge or spotting may indicate stress, hormonal imbalance or even ovulation that occurs midcycle. If it lasted for than 24 to 48 hrs there is nothing much to worry and may indicate shedding of old blood. If it seems to persist, or if there is fresh intermenstrual bleeding with abdominal cramps, etc. please do get a per vaginal examination and ultraspund scan of the abdomen. It is important to know if you are on any intrauterine device, pills, etc. If you notice any itching, irritation, redness, soreness, burning urination, chances of infection may have to be excluded.
Please get back in case of further queries :)
