Question 1

if i have taken plan b a time before and then i take it now and i have a brownish redish discharge why?

Accepted Answer

Plan b: Plan B often times causes some irregular bleeding and the brown is usually just older blood.  However, since at best plan B is only 75% effective, I would check a pregnancy test 2 weeks after last use.  Its also probably time to start consistent birth control.  I would make an appointment to be seen.

Changes in hormones: May increase risk for yeast. Symptoms of a yeast infection may include: burning, redness ; itching of the vulva; burning with urination ; vaginal intercourse ; a clumpy, white, vaginal discharge with no odor. Sometimes the discharge isn’t apparent. If not suspicious for yeast - it may be the ebb ; flow of menstrual secretions.
