Having brown period blood is COMPLETELY normal. It is called âold bloodâ and comes out either at the start or end of a womanâs period. In the middle of menstruation, this is heavier and takes a pink or red color. Blood becomes brown because of its iron content â iron turns brown when it is exposed to air.
The color of the menstrual blood depends on bleeding rate. Slow bleeding results in darker menstrual blood. During the first 2 days of the onset of the periods, one may see deep red color blood coming out. Whereas, the color changes to dark brown or even black near the end of the periods. This is absolutely a normal color change that happens when the blood is older and not being expelled from the body quickly.
