Hello Anon

Thank you for writing.

This is normal - many women start their periods slowly over some days with brown discharge - this may be old blood being discharged. Then their actual period starts. While it makes for a long period in total, it's not uncommon. Mention it to your doctor at your next visit if you have concerns.
Best,
Susan
