Brown discharge

Going for a laproscopy on Monday to get a tubal done, iud removed, d&c and endo biopsy done.
The last month I have been having brown discharge and now the last 2 days also having brown discharge coming from my urthera as well, so coming out of two different spots at the same time. Had a pap done last month negative for std's so that is not the cause..........
Anyone with any idea what could be happening to me??

I'm not sure what's happening to you but I do know that brown blood/dischargy blood is a sign of old blood. How do you know that it is also coming from the urethra? I ask because I tend to not see much of anything down there myself.

An iud can slow your period and over time stop it. If you are having discharge that is brown, its probably just your bodies way of cleaning out what would have been your period. Like fission asked, How do you know that you also have this discharge from your urethra?

I know that it is also coming out from my urethra because I have to wear a pantyliner everyday and there are 2 spots of brown discharge on the liner one from the vagina and the other from the urethra and it's spaced out enough to see that it is seperate places.

Honestly, that's a first for me. With the labia and the hair--I never thought twice about how blood was patterned on my liner. Even though it's coming from one spot during my menses, the blood still some how manages to stain the whole pad that I wear.

The problem is this: If you think you are bleeding from the urethra, there is no simple way for doctors to confirm this. If you give a urine sample, blood is going to contaminate the urine because you having some bleeding going on. They would have to use a foley and catherize you, getting the urine straight from the bladder. That is the only way to determine if you have blood coming from there and if you do, it isn't a good thing.

Well I had my lap done this past Monday.......The result of the surgery is that I have severe endometrosis, they had to burn off 8 lesions and cut one off. I am missing a fallopian tube?????? This is the first my surgeon has ever seen. Thinks I was born this way, to top it off I have a 10 yr old child!!!!!
While they were trying to remove my iud, they had complications and punctured my uterus because my cervix was so small and tight.....I'm home now in lots of pain and trying to recover....
Anyone ever heard of a missing fallopian tube??
