Hello,
With the question "What's wrong with 38 weeks pregnant with coffee brown discharge?" , the doctor would like to answer as follows:
The phenomenon of brown mucus discharge, may be a change in the cervix, causing a few small blood vessels of the cervix to burst and bleed. This is one of the early signs of labor. If you do not have any abdominal pain, you can do gynecological cleaning, continue to monitor fetal movements and make an appointment with your doctor. If you have heavy bleeding, red or watery blood, or abdominal pain every 15 minutes or less than 10 fetal movements in 2 hours, you need to go to the emergency room immediately.
If you still have questions about 38 weeks pregnant with brown discharge, you can go to the hospital of Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
Best regards!
