What Causes Delayed Periods And Brown Vaginal Discharge?

Hello. I m a 28 year old woman. My period is 2 days late and I am spotting or rather observing a thick brownish discharge when I wipe. I also started having cramps but no menstruation blood yet. I have never had sex, neither did I engage in any sexual play with my bf. Also there s a discomforting itch on my left labia lip.. What can I do?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

The symptoms can be related to premenstrual symptoms.

In most cases, brown discharge is just the remains of the delayed period.

The vaginal canal is a specific self-cleaning system.

You should not be worried about it.

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

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi,
