Need to be examined: There are a few causes that may be responsible for your discharge. They are easily differentiated by a doctor's pelvic examination and analysis of the discharge.

Sugar pills: Skipping the sugar pills shouldn't be a problem. Having unprotected sex during this time may place you at risk for a sexually transmitted infection. See your doctor for an assessment, cultures and any necessary treatment. Some patients do get pregnant taking birth control pills so a pregnancy test should be part of your workup. All the best and stay safe.
