Hello,

Thank you for posting a question in this website.

Look, this type of brown discharge may be seen during ovulation. As you told, your period is due, until another two weeks then it is the right time for ovulation. So, there is very high chance to be a bleeding due to ovulation.

The other causes of this type of brown discharge are taking contraceptive pills, implantation bleeding.

As you have told that you had sex a week ago, that means there is very low chance of pregnancy. So, rarely, it could be an implantation bleeding.

But from my clinical experience I can assure you that most probably, this brown discharge is due to the hormonal changes occurred during ovulation. So, do not worry.

You should wait for two more days. If the discharge stops then you have nothing to do. But in case, it continues, you should do an ultrasound scan of whole abdomen and then consult with a gynecologist with the report for further management accordingly.

Hope this information suffices. Let me know, if you have any more question.

Regards.
