What Causes Brownish Color Discharge Before Periods With Delayed Periods?

Yes I was supposed to start my period on the 26th of this month. About a week before I was supposed to I started spotting a brownish color blood. It would only happen when I wiped, had intercourse with my boyfriend or had to pee. The blood has a strange odor to it. I'm a little worried in what this could be. Could I have had a miscarriage?

Hi,

It might be due to associated infection like a yeast infection or bacterial vaginosis. Miscarriage is unlikely.

You can consult a gynecologist and get a vaginal swab done for further assessment.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
