Hi

If there is no asscoiated clot then there is no cause for concern. ovulation can also induce brown discharge

Brief Answer:
Unlikely to be cause for concern

Detailed Answer:
Dear Ms

If there are no other associated symptoms like pain in abdomen and foul smelling discharge then there is no cause for concern.

It would be very helpful if you could provide me following additional information for me to be able to assist you further

1. Are you sexually active?

2. Do you have any urinary complaints like increased frequency of urine or burning sensation while passing urine?

3. DO you have any lesion on genitals?

4. Is there any clot present in discharge?

Awaiting your response

Take Care

Best regards

Then there is nothing to worry. Such bleeding can be occasionally seen especially during ovulatory cycle and fluctuating hormonal level.
