Answers:
1) Yes, this is normal!. The menstrual blood is brown from the oxidizing!. It takes a long time to get down the vaginal canal so it's basically just "old!." Perfectly normal, especially at the beginning and end!.

2) Maybe you could try tampons or just be more patient and deal with it building up!. That's what it's supposed to do!. As you move around, it may shift and not be so central!. Central "buildup" actually is what you want a pad to have (otherwise, it can leak and get on your undies)!. It's not supposed to be a big mess all over the pad!. It's all normal and you can just try different things (i!.e!. heavier flow pads) and see how that works out!. Anyway, in the end, it's not that much menstrual blood so you should try just being more patient and getting used to the pad!. If you absolutely cannot get used to it then try tampons!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

1) yes, totally normal!. the brown is just old blood, and your first period is usually brown!. after your first period, it will usually be the regular color of blood [red], and brown at the end just means its starting to end!.
2) that usually happens, and theirs not a lot you can do about it!. Sorry!.!.!. it will probably always be like that!. Once it starts to soak in the pad more, it will spread, but otherwise it will continue to do that!. You can use tampons if you feel ready to, or you can just stick with pads!.

good luck :o)Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yes, brown in the beginning and at the end is normal because it is the blood that has been exposed the longest to the air!. The outer layer of the uterus is the first to shed, and has been exposed longer to the air than the layers underneath!. The last layers come out actually sit a bit in your body becuase towards the end, your uterus has stopped contracting, making the exit time out of your body a little longer than the other layers!.

Secondly, don't worry about waisting a pad!.!.!.you would need one regardless of if you had a lot of blood or a little!.!.!.!.!.you could try a lighter panty liner or tampons!. They feel better than the bulky ones so you don't feel like you are wearing a diaper =]Www@Answer-Health@Com

1- its pretty normal to usually start off brown then to turn to blood blood after!. towards the end of your period it should become lighter and possible brown again but not really!. every female is different though!.
2- maybe you should try and wear thinner longer pads!. like the ones for light days!. i have the same problem because im a very light bleeder but i usually use light long pads!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

1!. Yes it's normal
2!. Don't worry, that pretty much the point, but sometimes pants can shift around and it's good to have that whole coverage!.
If you feel you are really wasting it you could always get a lighter absorbancy oneWww@Answer-Health@Com

well im pretty sure if u have just started well the brown is just old blood coming out,and as for "wasting a pad" Girl,be thankfull its not leaking all over making a mess!.!.and pads are spose too obsorb blood so dont stress let it run its course

xx good luck wif not wasting padsWww@Answer-Health@Com

Brown blood is normal!. It just signals that your period is light at the beginning, and usually at the end it means its about to cut off!.!. You aren't wasting a pad!. Be thankful it isn't going everywhere!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

that seems pretty normal!. now if you are spotting brown in between periods, you might want to get that checked out as that's a sign of low progesterone!.
not sure what to tell you about the pads!. maybe you need to choose a more absorbent pad!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Lol Yes this is completely normal if you had asked something about it stopping the first day it starts then you would have had something to worry about or if it doesn't come every month like it should but as far as color your cool!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

1) Yes, Normal!.
2) Maybe it's cos the pad is folding inwards, try and buy some firmer pads, I use 'Always Ultra'!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

1) its very normal
2) maybe try using a tampon, then it won't be a waste!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

1) Yes, it's normal
2) I don't know!. I don't use pads!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
