Brown blood 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 physiological post-menstrual bleeding. 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 blood after menstruation may also be pathological postmenstrual bleeding, 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 blood after menstruation. If pathological post-menstrual bleeding cannot recover on its own, it is recommended to go to the hospital for a leucorrhea examination to determine the cause.
