Could be spotting during ovulation or if you’re on hormonal birth control it could be breakthrough bleeding. Brown usually means that whatever “flow” is there is very light because the blood has had time to oxidize. If it goes away soon I wouldn’t worry about it personally. however, if it continues for a long time, you’re in pain, might be pregnant, or it starts happening at this stage of ur cycle every month def talk to ur doctor

Again, I personally wouldn’t worry but I’m also the type that if I’m not dying I’m going to ignore the problem lol

Thank you! I've had to teach myself everything and periods and vaginas and all that so I just wanted to make sure to not worry! Im def not pregnant too so it's probably nothing to worry about, hopefully. 😔 I wish being a woman was easier

100% there with you. My mom taught me some but some things I’m still learning too! Periods were discussed heavily in our household but personal hygiene was not at all
