Hi,
Your history of brownish pink purple discharge post-periods is due to shedding of uterine lining from the previous cycle. Spotting is harmless & it usually lasts for 1-2 days. Fresh blood is red in color, once they comes in contact with air, they become brown Color, which is absolutely normal.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
