hello
thank you for asking the question.
your query is regarding brown discharge. brown discharge indicates old blood. uterine lining which shed off and which is old removed as brown discharge. sometime it occur at the time of ovulation.
Brown discharge also indicates hormonal imbalance.
so if your daughter is not pregnant, still there is brown discharge at the time or before period then no need to worry about it. it is normal.
if you notice more days discharge with foul smell then immediately consult the doctor
hope this will helpful to you.
I find this answer helpful
