What Causes A Brown Mucus Like Discharge In The Periods?

Hi, I am 8 months postpartum, I got my first postpartum period on July 6, and then another period 2 weeks later, and then again 2 weeks after that. My CNM switched my birth control 2 weeks ago from the mini pill to regular birth control since I am no longer nursing. For the past month I have had brown mucus-like discharge. Not heavy, and not constant. Sometimes it will skip a day. What could this be due to?

Hi
Hope this message finds u in good health.
I have gone through ur msg and understand your concern.

it may be due to some sort of hormonal imbalances or variations in the body,though there may be other reasons as well

Nothing to worry about, You should eventually get back to normal.

Take multi vitamin and calcium supplements
Do consult a gynecologist if symptoms worsen

Get back to me for any FOLLOW UP QUERIES anytime.
