the brown color could be old blood....
Vaginal discharge is normal and varies during your menstrual cycle. Before ovulation (the release of the egg), there is A LOT of mucous produced, up to 30X more than after ovulation. It is also more watery and elastic during that phase of your cycle. You may want to wear panty liners during that time.
The things to be worried about include if the discharge has a yellow or green color, is clumpy like cottage cheese, or has a bad odor. If worried, see a doctor.
Brown: May happen right after periods, and is just "cleaning out" your vagina. Old blood looks brown.
Spotting Blood/Brown Discharge: This may occur when you are ovulating/mid-cycle. Sometimes early in pregnancy you may have spotting or a brownish discharge at the time your period would normally come. If you have spotting at the time of your normal period rather than your usual amount of flow, and you have had sex without using birth control, you should check a pregnancy test.

It is fairly impossible to tell you what is wrong over the internet. Based on what you are describing above, you could have something as simple as a yeast infection or something as complicated as chlamydia. You need to go see your gynecologist ASAP for proper evaluation and treatment. There is no other way. Good luck!

I think that your discharge is normal. It's not necessarily always the same texture or color. But to be on the safe side consult your doctor
