A member asked:
I was on my period when i took the pill and after my period lasted only 4 or 5 days now im getting a brownish discharge should i be worried?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
NO: Do a pregnancy test to exclude pregnancy. The pill may be started during the menses. The brownish discharge may be 'old' residual blood from your menses. If you are not pregnant, I would not worry.
