I started my period with brown discharge and having some burning. on bc not sexually active. what could the burning be from?

Yeast?: The main cause of genital burning or itching in women is vaginal yeast infection. Yeast usually causes little or no discharge, and not brown discharge, but that might just be the start of your period and not abnormal. You could try an OTC yeast cream -- look for active ingredient ending in "azole" (miconazole, clotrimazole, etc). Definitely see your doctor if that doesn't clear it up after a week
