Keep watch and consult if getting worse.

Question 9

i took levonelle a week ago and today i started having a very dark brown watery discharge. my period isnt due for another few days,should i be worried?

Accepted Answer

Levonelle is a: ...hormonal "emergency" contraceptive that can prevent pregnancy after unprotected sex.  In works primarily by interfering with the hormones that trigger ovulation.  However, it can have other effects on the menstrual cycle, such as those you're experiencing.  This period may be off schedule, but your next cycle will be back to normal.  So, no worries!  Dr. Anne

Question 10

instead of my period i had brown watery discharge that started 6 days before period was due i never got my true period and i now have thrush ?

Accepted Answer

Pregnancy?: If you have regular periods, what you have described could be symptoms of a pregnancy or ectopic.  It is important that you get a blood pregnancy test rather than a diy type.  I believe the thrush is a separate issue and it is concerning because it usually indicates a weak immune system from antibiotics, illness, hiv, cancer, etc.  Go see your gyn or pcp for  both issues.
