Unrelated: The fingering is not likely to be related to the brown discharge. It you intend to have sex you should use a contraceptive all the time, every time. You may consider an IUD or an implanted contraceptive. If you are less than 26 years old, get HPV vaccine. Consult this site for more information on this topic. http://www.nichd.nih.gov/health/topics/menstruation/conditioninfo/Pages/causes.aspx Practice safe sex.
