In the first few days of your period it's the old blood coming out and that is always brownish. It gets lighter after that.
that happens before you get it! you only get it when it's just blood.
Menstrual blood can be anywhere from a brown, rusty color, to a bright blood red, to a very dark (almost black) red. For me personally, my first period was brownish red and had a very light flow. I think most women who have been menstruating for a while usually see this shade near the end of their periods.
its brownish or red
Wel your first period usually is brownish and smells VERY bad. Then probably by the next one you should see more red blood. Its darkish red.
Yes it is.
A first period is usually brownish discharge mixed with blood. It is also usually lighter the first time and expect to get stomach cramps and you'll probably be feeling moody. DOn't worry about the amount of blood though because usually you only loose 2-3 tablespoons of it. Hope I Helped. (:
A brownish discharge is old blood. When blood is coming from the uterus during a period, it begins as pinkish (light bleeding), then redder or maroonish color (heavier bleeding with or without clumps called blood clots). Toward the end of a period, the flow becomes lighter and brownish colored. Brownish means "old blood", e.g. the blood has clotted from the source, like it is supposed to, so now the flow is just whatever blood was already created before. If you cut your finger and put a bandage on it, first you'd see reddish blood, but after the body creates a clot to stop fresh bleeding, you would see brownish blood forming with the scab on the wound. Same principle for what's happening in the uterus, except there is no scabbing when the body stops the active bleeding.
It probably means that your period was very light and thus didn't come all the way out. That gave it time to get old, and old blood turns brownish and thickens.
At first I thought they were blue but they are actually a dark brownish black.
It can vary between bright red, dark red, brown to almost black.
that's just the left overs, its like when blood dries and turns brownish color, its not discharge, its just the very beginning or very end of your period where the first bit of blood has been in contact with oxygen and the left overs from not having any left in you besides the last little bit. Nothin to worry about.
