Is A Thick Tar Like Discharge In Menstruation Normal Here?
I have been being treated for possible lupus and have been on Imuran and Mobic for the last three months. I just saw my Rheumatologist last week and the nurse called yesterday to tell me I was anemic and to stop the Imuran for 4 weeks and come back in for labs. Now I have been on my period for 3 days and it is not it s usual color or consistency. It is dark brown (almost black) and pretty thick (almost like tar). Is this something I should be concerned about or is this normal in my situation. I am 32 years old and I have never had a period like this. I weigh 108lbs and I m 5 4 tall.

It seems to be normal but still if it doesnt revert back to normal that means you will need to seek a gynecologist appointment for the same .
