The ninth day of menstruation, the leucorrhea is brown

Menstruation is a normal physiological phenomenon for women and usually lasts about 7 days. After your period, your body returns to normal. However, some women have brown leucorrhea on the ninth day of menstruation. This phenomenon may be physiological or caused by disease. The latter must be taken seriously and the condition must be clarified and treated in time. So, why does the leucorrhea turn brown on the ninth day of menstruation? Let’s take a look below.

Brown vaginal discharge after menstruation usually occurs within 7 days after menstruation. Brown vaginal discharge after menstruation is also called mid-menstrual bleeding, which usually refers to a small amount of bleeding between two normal menstrual periods, which may be accompanied by varying degrees of lower abdominal pain. It is a physiological brown vaginal discharge after menstruation. If the symptoms are mild, no treatment is required. If you find heavy bleeding or long-term infertility, it is best to go to the hospital for examination and symptomatic treatment.

Brown vaginal discharge after menstruation may also be pathological, which is mostly caused by cervical diseases, such as endometrial cancer, cervical polyps, cervical erosion, etc. Gynecological inflammation such as vaginitis may also cause brown vaginal discharge after menstruation. If the brown color of leucorrhea after pathological menstruation cannot be restored on its own, it is recommended to go to the hospital for a leucorrhea examination to determine the cause.

1. Poor menstrual blood flow and congestion: Black blood after menstruation may be caused by the small amount of bleeding in the late period, poor menstrual blood discharge, and long congestion in the uterus.
