Hi, Im 12 years old and i have been having the normal white or clear discharge for about 9 months and then for 4 days i got this light brown discharge? It wasn't enough to wear a pad but it was more then what i usually get of the clear white discharge! So i have been wondering if it was my period or not? Do you know? Or have any comments?
Could very well be the start of your menstrual cycle....but on the other hand it could also be something like BV (Bacterial Vaginosis).
I know that sounds kind of scary, but don't freak out. BV is not deadly or anything....and can be cured and treated and its really no big deal. But you SHOULD go to the doctor and tell her your symptoms so she can make sure it's not something serious. Plus it's no fun having BV, so talk to your doctor about it and you'll be fine:)

Thanks so much! I did tell my mom and she said that it could have been your body getting ready to start your period and to carry a pad everywhere just in case. This week is suppose to be the week I would get my period if the brown discharge was it! So well find out!
no probs yeah alway remember a pad cos when u have started it could be irregualer for the first year or so :)
