Irregular Period Lead To Brown Discharge. Started Menopause?
hi, i am 41 and for the past year my periods have been irregular.. I took a period 2 weeks ago which was 1 week early, then after a week break i have taken what i can describe as a brownish blood period which lasted 4 days...no cramps like i normally have. Do you think its just the start of menapause or do you think i should get checked out? thankyou

Hello mam, delay of periods and scanty discharge is suggestive of upcoming menopause.
But still do a urine pregnancy test which if negative get an ultrasound, FSH and thyroid profile testing done.
Visit your gynecologist with reports.all the best and take care
