I am wondering, what is going on with my body?
Answers:
If you're taking pills, the extra estrogen could be causing your problems.
Birth control pills contain estrogen, and contribute to the development or worsening of estrogen dominance. Depending on dosage, they can be very potent, and linger for a long period of time in the body.
A woman's natural cycle is composed of rising and falling levels of estrogen and progesterone. Birth control pills work by keeping estrogen at a sufficiently high level that they fool the body into thinking it is pregnant, therefore another pregnancy cannot occur.
Cramping, painful and irregular periods are often due to a deficiency of progesterone and an excess of estrogen. So estrogen-alone birth control pills -- as are the most commonly prescribed pills on the market now -- often compound the problem. That's why some women have intolerable estrogen-induced side effects when they are on birth control pills such as weight gain, mood swings, and breast tenderness .
What is not usually mentioned, or even known, is the metabolism of birth control pills by the liver requires extra amounts of the B-complex vitamins, vitamin C, magnesium and zinc. That means if you're taking birth control pills for years at a time, as are most American women, you're creating nutrient deficiencies. Weight gain, fluid retention, mood changes, depression and even heart disease can all arise from nutrient imbalance.
I always have those discharges and i'm not on birth control! But every women gets it ! But 5 days i think is too muchhh
call up your gynocolgist!
I wouldn't its pretty normal 3-5 days that is why they make light day liners.
Brown discharge is just old blood. It is normal to have this for a bit at the start of a period and even toward the end because the body is trying to get rid of the old blood. I would go ahead and check with your dr to be on the safe side.
i would worry, i get the same thing, its only a few days more so i really wouldnt worry, if it happens for your next 3 or 4 periods, ifs its no better then maybe think of seeing a doc. chloe xx
Brown: May happen right after periods, and is just "cleaning out" your vagina. Old blood looks brown.
Spotting Blood/Brown Discharge: This may occur when you are ovulating/mid-cycle. Sometimes early in pregnancy you may have spotting or a brownish discharge at the time your period would normally come. If you have spotting at the time of your normal period rather than your usual amount of flow, and you have had sex without using birth control, you should check a pregnancy test
You should not worry. Discharge is the body's natural way of cleansing the vagina, and the brown stuff you are seeing is the old blood from your period.
