Could be infection: or irregular spotting. If there is more odor and frequent discharge unrelated to frequency of intercourse, then it's more likely to be an infection. Irregular menstrual spotting also gets worse with infection on board. Proceed to see a GYN or family physician to get yourself properly diagnosed and treated.

Sxs: Brown blood is older blood being cleaned out of the uterus. Can't say reason for spotting. May be imbalance of estrogen & progesterone.
