WHAT CAN IT BE?
ok well heres the thing my period last up to 8 days and on the 5th day the blood starts dispearing but then i get this brown discharge after the blood is gone so what could that be? is it bad? also something else that worriess me is a white milky discharge that i have when im not on my period and its pretty heavy at time. can somebody please help me..thanks
Sounds like just typical discharge. Almost all women have SOME odor to their discharge. It's just their scent. It's your body cleaning the vaginal area out.
i have non of that its just creamy and kind if heavy n barely just barely some odor but no itch or anything
Typically signs of an infection would be a clumpy kind of discharge (described best as cottage cheese) odor, itchy, or swelling of the vaginal area.
oh yea very fun! not lol yea like i have it a lot an d even get on my panties i just hope its not an infection or something bad

The brown discharge is "old blood," presumably residual from your period. Not to worry about it. It just turns brown after a while, waiting to roll out. The white milky discharge is the normal, self-cleaning secretions of the vagina. If you keep your eye out, you can see that discharge change, at about midway between your periods, for a couple of days to thick, clear, stretchy discharge that looks like raw eggwhite. That's the cervical discharge indicating your ovulation is near. Fun thing, being female, right? lol
