Brown Discharge...NO smell but still freaks me out
Question: i just started my BC pills almost less then a month ago, me and my boyfriend have sex frequently but use protection every time. One day i realised i had a brown, odorless discharge on the inside of my underwear. Sometimes it would be heavy and other times it just wasnt.. And it kinda makes me un easy cuz i thought well maybe im spotting or something and thats one sign of pregnancy but I was wondering if you had any answers on what this could be.
PLEASE ANY INFORMATION WILL HELP...THANKS!
Answer: Most likely the brown discharge you are experiencing is just spotting related to your body adjusting to the hormones in the oral contraceptive pills. It is common for women to experience some spotting and irregular bleeding during the first 1-3 months after they start oral contraceptives. If your brown discharge is still a concern, you may want to make an appointment with a health care provider for an evaluation.
