*****First I want to warn that this is personal and detailed if your offended or grossed out easy don't read!!!*****



I have had PCOS since I was about 13 and have delt with random periods forever..  I just got my period after not havin one for 6 months it was not pill induced. I started my period 3 days ago and it has been very spotty and now last night it turned really mucusey (sp) and dark brown not red. Is this normal has this happend to anyone else?  Is it maybe because I haven't had a period in so long? I am sorry this is gross and graffic but I don't have anyone else to talk to. Sorry if I grossed anyone out or offended anyone.

If I remember correctly the brown color just means that it's old blood.

it's because you haven't had a period in a while. that used to happen to me all the time .

I wouldn't worry about grossing anyone out, if you are reading information in here you have to expect a bit of it lol.  I get this at the beginning and end of every cycle, PCOS used to be bad for me.  now that I have lost the weight I have the opposite problem I am getting my period or spotting a few times a month.  I am on day 7 right now, thought I was all done and bam it is like the heaviest day.  cramping the whole bit.  I don't think for me anyway I will ever be normal.

Good luck
