It's just old blood. It's your body getting rid of some old tissue from last month that it didn't get rid of at the time.

Don't worry about it it's fine Smile

Thanks for the reply!

Another thing I was wondering.. Will it continue throughout my period? If so is it normal if it does?

Some people get it just before they start their period and then it turns red for fresh blood and then goes back to brown.

Some just get an extremely light period which is more like spotting and is usually brown/pink or light red in colour.

However, if you find that your cycles have changed a massive amount for you and what you're used to, I would advise you to visit your doctor or OB/GYN
