Hello.
Thanks for your query.
Decreased bleeding and brownish discharge can be associated with hormonal irregularities, excessive anxiety, diet change, extreme exercise or crash dieting.
In your case anxiety seems to be the cause.
If this has happened for the first time, you can just ignore it and watch out for your next period.
Decreased bleeding will always be associated with bloating due to PMS.It will subside once the normal periods are resumed.
Meanwhile reduce intake of caffeine containing beverages like cofee, tea during your cycles or a week before expecting them.You must drink lots of fresh fruit juice and increase water intake. Avoid spicy food and have lots of XXXXXXX vegetables and fruits.These will reduce the bloating during cycles
If the cycles get often irregular , consider consulting a Gynecologist for an evaluation
Hope I have answered your query. I will be available if you have any further queries.
