Hi,
Your discribtion about present complaint, suggests the discharge may be due to ..
* postmenstrual vaginal trichomonal infection due to negligence about hygine during menses.This infection affects both the sex partners ,and is associated with clear or curd like discharge......needs treatment of both partners orally as well as locally.
* The chlorine used for water purification may be in a bit excessive proportion, causing irritation of vagina ,itching, & brown discharge due to scratching. .....This needs just cleaning of the part, & local application of ointment containing Micanozol & hydrocortisone.
* sometimes swelling of glands in labia of vagina get swollen,itching due to 2ndry inf with fungus ,it may burst& abrown discharge is seen. ... This needs a systemic T/t along local cleanliness
I would advice you to consult a Gynac if no releif withlocal care & have a
proper guidence
Thank you.

Hello
thanks for using health care magic

it would be better you meet a doctor for

detail examination and at least a vaginal smear for microscopy,

pH and KOH tests in order for an appropriate diagnosis to be made

and effective treatment given.

Brown discharges like you have noted are not normal and usually could

be a sign of infection.

Hope this helps you.
Best regards
Dr Achuo
