Get tested for STD: If you had unprotected sex, this brown discharge could be a sign of a sexually transmitted disease. You need to have a pelvic exam with swabs to test you for this. Treatment would be with antibiotics which are necessary to avoid the long term complications of an untreated std. It can cause infertility, so get tested.
