A member asked:
I've been on birthcontrol for 3 weeks. the day after i had sex i started having a brown discharge, there are no other symptoms, what does mean?

Old blood, infection: Usually, this could be old blood that your body is naturally getting rid of, or possibly a sign of infection. If it persists, or you have excessively yellow, green or other colored discharge more than a couple days, see your doc to get a smear/other tests to make sure it's nothing serious.
