Is it normal to have a clear brownish colored vaginal discharge before or during ovulation?

Brown discharge typically means that it is old blood that the body is just getting rid of, so I would not worry about it.  If  it lasts for more than a couple days though, this is something I would bring to the attention of your doctor, or if it has a foul odor.

DEPENDS ON WHAT TIME OF THE MONTH IT OCCURS......IF IT'S AROUND THE MIDDLE, IT COULD BE PRE-OVULATORY SPOTTING....COMPLETELY NORMAL...............THAT'S ABOUT THE TIME FRAME IT LASTS TOO........

A certain amount of free fluid in the pelvis, behind the uterus, is normal at certain points in your cycle; after ovulation, a small amount of fluid released with the egg collects behind the uterus and is eventually reabsorbed by the body. A larger amount of fluid may indicate a ruptured ovarian cyst. Pain is usually present in this instance, but most often resolves on its own within a few days. Infection is another possibility, but in this case symptoms such as pain and fever are often significant.

Depends on your age.  As many people have said it could be a yeast infection. There are many causes for yeast infections. The discharge however would be the consistency of say,'cottage cheesy'! Yuck,huh? Well just trying to describe it better for you.\n\nAnother possibility is ovulation. This usually occurs about two weeks after you last period. Sometimes it has the consistency of 'egg whites' OK,another Yuck! \n\nIf it is accompanied by any burning,itching or pain,you should go in to see a gynecologist. You may have a bladder or kidney infection also.\n\nToo many things it could be with just that description. My best suggestion to you would to see a doctor anyway,just to rule out any concerns you may have.

It's not a disease it is discharge.Vaginal discharge, a normal occurrence for some women during their menstrual cycle, or a medical sign of many conditions including endometrial cancer, yeast infections, and some STDs. If she's pregnant than all it is is discharge or a yeast infection.

A healthy vagina produces secretions to cleanse and regulate itself...almost like saliva cleanses the mouth. These vaginal secretions are normal vaginal discharge....All women have some vaginal discharge. Normal discharge may be clear, cloudy white, and/or yellowish when dry on clothing.... It may also contain white flecks and at times may be thin and stringy. Changes in normal discharge can occur for many reasons, including menstrual cycle... emotional stress...diet changes.. pregnancy..(which you ruled out) medications ... including birth control pills...(which you also rule out) and sexual arousal...You should basically worry only if the discharge is smelly or accompanied by itching.. rash or hurts....grey or white or yellow greenish discharge with a bad odour is to worry about...so  basically the normal clear sticky discharge is just to clean out the vagina....and check if your diet has changed or you are more stressed than normal:-)\nBest wishes

Bleeding heavily during ovulation is not normal- you should talk to your doctor ASAP!  Bleeding can signal many different conditions- endometriosis, fibroids, cancer, ect- get it checked out!

yes it depends on colour. you can still get clear discharge, as per normal. and red/brown thick discharge is common as it is the linign of the uterus sloughing off.

Well, I have had a problem similar to that...I went to the doctor and everything was perfectly fine.  She told me that some women just have more discharge than others, and it is completely normal.  Also, I have noticed that when I am ovulating I tend to have discharge, and sometimes it is discolored.  It's normal, and not pleasant, but you learn to live with it.  Your body is just trying to clean itself out.  Just relax, and try the bath.

You will know when you have your first period, because there will be lots of blood.  Before you have your first period, you will begin to have discharge at times, maybe for years before your period starts.  Sometimes it will be white, sometimes brown - this normal.

Yes, this is normal.  It's old blood left over from your last period that comes out right before the next period starts.  This shouldn't be anything to worry about.

You are NOT pregnant if you have not had sex.\n\nI've had that too, the brown spotting can be a sign of a period. It's nothing major. Go see a gyno and wear pantie-liners.

Discharge could mean one of two things: One, you have some type of vaginal/yeast infection or venereal disease...or TWO, YES, you are coming up on your period. If your discharge is milky and somewhat clear, it's healthy. If it is thick, with odor, and looks like cottage cheese see a physician immediately.

bratzwoman is correct.\n\nMuch of the normal discharge is cervical mucus; it is this which changes in texture, during the cycle.\n\nThe vaginal lubrication is exuded from the walls of the vagina, especially when she is sexually aroused.\n\nA very good site on female sexuality, anatomy etc is;\n\nhttp://www.the-clitoris.com/f_html/fr_index.htm\n\nIt is not a porn site, but is very frank.\n\nSee especially:\n\nhttp://www.the-clitoris.com/f_html/fluids.htm\n\nand\n\nhttp://www.the-clitoris.com/f_html/orgasm.htm\n\nAbnormal discharge involves itching, irritation, and really strange nasty odours eg yeast ("thrush"), Trichomonas vaginalis (a protozoan parasite) and bacterial vaginosis (the wrong types of bacteria taking over).

Yes it is normal to have discharge, however, if you have itching with it you may have an infection.  You then have a few differant choices, most yeast infections will clear up with menses (your period) if you can handle the itching that long go for it, you could buy over the counter remidies or better yet if your unsure, go see your doctor.

Yes, they do.  A woman's hormones are more active during this time, additional discharge is not unusual.  If it has a foul odor to it and it burns, talk to your OBGYN, most discharge already has a faint odor, but I think you know if it smelled rank. Look for pink or red coloring, see a doctor is this happens. Sometimes it could be from loosing your plug, if you are that far along. But it is better to be safe then sorry. As ALWAYS when taking advice from hear, consult a doctor!
