I was sterilised by having a bilateral salpingectomy so full tubal removal in November. Just before that I was I had a cervical polyp removed. I had 3 swabs taken, ultrasound & smear test. All came back ok . Had a normal period 2 days later then another period in December.
This month 5 days before my period was due I had light brown discharge then a bit of dark blood on d2 so I thought my period was starting then that just turned into the light brown discharge again. Now on day 4 and same as day 2. Previously I had brown discharge occasionally about 3 to 5 days before my period due but only after sex.
DOC decided this was just hormonal but I've had blood tests done and nothing.
Just wondering if anybody else has had something similar. I am 40 by the way

I'm in the same boat right now.
I'm 24, been on birth control for 10 years and so my periods are very regular.
This month I got my period last Friday (18th) and I normally get my periods on Wednesday (23rd). It has just been brown blood and some dark red discharge. I haven't experienced this since I first got my period years ago.
It's acting the same as any other cycle, I've had minor cramps some days and the discharge has been enough to fill a pantyliner each day (which is my normal flow).
The only things that concern me are the fact it came so early and that I really haven't had a lot of blood. There have been a lot of clots though.
I track my period diligently along with my cycles and track sexual intercourse etc so it is very, very unlikely that I'm pregnant. I also am not experiencing any symptoms to make me think that I am.
I've been under a lot of stress this month so I'm not sure if that's the cause but naturally this on top of everything else is causing more stress.
I recently moved so I don't have a doctor right now to go see, but I also don't want to overreact. Has anyone else experienced this before?
