Ok so this is really bothering me cos I am not sure if something is wrong with me and I should be worried or if it is normal and you are the only people I can ask so here goes:
So, AF arrived on Sunday and kinda started calming down on Tuesday but seemed to look like (and this is the gross part) it was a bit brown (this only started on Tuesday) and since then, it has stopped but yesterday and today, there is only this brown - like a brown discharge (I know that sounds gross and I am so sorry if you read this despite the subject heading)
Has this happened to anyone else? What is wrong with me?? Its been going all yesterday and today - not heavy just there - like spotting... ewwww

well.... I tend to have a heavy period on day 1, then light day 2 and 3 and day 4 is like a brownish colour and really light, I would liken it to it being like old lining if that makes any sense. It usually only lasts the 1 day though

i got that when i came off the pill, i think it was just my body getting rid of excess gunk up there. i don't think it is in any way harmful, it is just a clear out.

Hasn't happened to me, but I've heard of it happening to lots of women who are trying for a baby, and from what I've heard, is nothing to panic about... wait and see if it arrives next month - maybe not?!?

PS:  that's not TMI - no need to apologise, especially with a disclaimer like that for a title!

Sounds fairly normal to me too, what the brown color usually indicates is that the blood is a bit 'older', so I would agree with perhaps your body is clearing out a bit of old tissue or something like that. If it keeps up for a while though, ring your Dr.

Not trying to get your hopes up but is it worth a preganacy test?

It does sound pretty normal though if your body is adjusting to no longer having any of the depo in your system.

I came off the depo in Jan (that was my last booked appt and I missed it on purpose) and about a month ago I got this yucky brown discharge for a day, nothing before and nothing since... maybe as the other girls said it could be old lining / blood?!

I had a very weird period like that and then figured out a month later when AF hadn't arrived that I was pregnant.

I figure it was implantation bleeding.

Here's hoping huh?

I might do a test in the morning - its doing my head in now - the hoping. I have to get it out of the way or I will keep thinking about it. Don't worry Paws - I don't have my hopes up - I will just keep thinking about it

It probably won't hurt to do one just to rule it out. Good luck!

just be prepared that it might not show up yet, it still may be too early. I think my last period was implantation bleeding (well, will know for sure on wed!) i tested a couple of days after it and it was neg, then i tested 3 days before af was due and got bfp. So test tomorrow, but wait another 2 weeks and test again, if it is neg that is. good luck!

Yeh i would recommend doing a pregnancy test and seeing what happens. Do you chart? Do you have a link to a chart we can look at? Just wanna know what your temps were or are through this mystery period.

I do chart Jess but I haven't figured out how to link it. My temperature plummetted when AF started after being higher up after O so I don't think my test will be a BFP.
