    Question

    I haven't gotten my period yet, but I have been having black vaginal discharge. It happens for like three days one or two times a month. I don't understand. What is it? Is there something wrong with me? Should I get it checked?

    Answer

    I would keep track on a calendar for a month or two and then go see your doctor. Good luck!
