Examination needed: A gynecologic exam is in order, perhaps an ultrasound of the pelvis looking for possible endometrial thickening. You may need further investigation including Paps and perhaps endometrial biopsy.

See OB-Gyn or PC doc: I am concerned about a possible polyp or infection of your cervix due to bleeding after intercourse. However, bleeding is common after miscarriages. If it doesn't stop after 2 weeks, there may be retained products of conception and may need treatment. Also, there is the issue of Rhogam immunization if you are Rh negative. Please see your primary care physician or OB-Gyn for an exam and treatment.

Maybe: Best to check pregnancy test on first morning urine and if neg repeat in 7-10 days to answer question if you are pregnant or not. In regards to your cycle, irregularity very common with many causes. Brown d/c can be many things (old blood, infection, miscarriage and others) If it continues, best to see your gyn for evaluation. Hope this helps. Best of luck. Dr R
