It could be due to hormonal imbalance.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,
Thanks for trusting us about your health care.
I have gone through your history and understand your concerns.
Brown discharge could be due to hormonal imbalance no need to worry about it and menstrual irregularities could be due to hormonal imbalance.
Get your hb,thyroid profile and pelvic ultrasound to rule out the cause.
As you are having normal menstrual flow after brown discharge,it maybe normal.
Are you having any associated symptoms along with brown discharge?
Are you on any medication?
Hope to hear from you soon.
Hope found useful, feel free to ask more information.
Good luck
