Non-Period period? - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Beyond_Borders · 04-23-2007, 08:02 PM

I've never been regular with my periods. The first time i got it wasi n august, the next one must have been over 3-6 months alter, i dont remember. Then i had it every 4 months or so, i never kept track, or id start to keep track and got lost or forgot becuase it was so irregular. Then I started keeping track officially when it started to even out a bit, i tracked january-march and everyhting was good, roughly a month apart. Life is good.

So here i am, sitting here mid april, half expecting it sometime soon, not really htinking about it, and when i went to the bathroom i noticed my vaginal discharge was..brownish. And i thought, okay, here it comes. This was at night so when i got up the next morning, and found the discharge still brown, i figured, Tampon time. Becuase I get my period roughly 4-5 days, and only bleed on the first night or two, I figured its 7 am the blood jut hasnt started givin'er yet. That's fine. I take my tampon out about 8 hours later jut like normal, Nothing. Just brown discharge. So i left it alone, Next day brown discharge, small amount of blood, Next day, same th ing, next day brown discharge, no blood. Next day barely any brown discharge.

It's been a few days, and i'm back to normal, discharge wise. No period either. Now, this has happened once before, For about a day and a half i got a brownish discharge and then BAM period.. thats why i thought i was getting it.... I havn't, and i dont feel it coming etiher.

What the hell was that? Was that jut an INCREDIBLY light period? Was i jut SUPPOSED to get my period and didnt excatly? I mean i'm not having sex at the moment, or under stress really, a little but nothign incredible.. so what weas that?

That's happened to me before...very light period, spotting really, for no reason. Are you on some sort of hormonal birth control (even though you aren't having sex at the moment) or have an IUD? Birth control can mess your cycles up sometimes too. Also, if there is any chance you could be pregnant, during the first month of pregnancy some women will experience spotting when the egg implants. If you are really worried about it, then see your doctor.

Im not on birth control, And as far as i'm aware do not have an IUD. And there's really no way I could be pregnant at all.. So i suppose it was just a very light peroid? or perhaps even spotting? Which means nothing really, besides i jut skipped a month or something... which to me isn't really news at all...

Thanks for your reply!

You'd know if you had an IUD-- you have to get them put in. It does sound like you were spotting, though.

This has happened to me before too. I don't get regular periods either. I get one like every third month. Im not on BC or anything, i have just always been that way. And usually if I get the brown blood thing off and on for a few days I still get my period eventually. But I think there was a time or two that I didn't. So I was like you, just assumed it was spotting.

Thanks you guys! I'm alot less worried now. It started again today after being gone for a few days so I'm thinking maybe this time around I'll get my period.

Thanks again!
