Brown discharge instead of my period

I'm a 13 year old girl and it's normal for me to have irregular periods. This time, my period was late and instead of it I had spotting brown discharge for a week. I read online that brown discharge is normal before a regular period. And that is the problem! I did not get a period after the discharge. After a few days it just turned white and there is a lot of it. Please help me,I'm freaking out!

  • It's normal, especially at your age. Your periods don't start getting normal until about your mid 20s. Yellow, gray, or smelly discharge is not normal

  • Your rectal contents have breached your uterus.

  • Like I said. Second opinion.

  • It sounds fairly normal for someone with irregular periods. Brown discharge is just a bit of old blood.

    Stress can make it even more irregular.

    If you're really worried and want to put your mind at ease, talk to a female relative or your doctor. If it doesn't become more regular, you may need to see a doctor to see why that is. But at a young age it's not necessarily abnormal to be irregular.

  • Sex during periods is an excellent way to prevent pregnancy, fyi. If things are strange go ask a doctor.

    • Not really. You can get pregnant at any time. Plus, she's 13. Let's not encourage her to have sex for any reason

      • I don't encourage or discourage young children to have sex. It's really not my buisiness.

  • I'm a guy so I would get a second opinion. But it sounds like you have an infection. Most likely a yeast infection. Either way you should tell your parents and go see the doctor. Also if you a very active you can skip your period.
