Brown discharge before period while on birth control

Common Questions and Answers about Brown discharge before period while on birth control

discharge

Avatar f tn Since you just recently started birth control, having brown discharge is completely normal. It;s just a side effect of the birth control. It happens because your body is trying to get used to being on birth control. It's also normal right before a period - so could be possible your period is about to arrive early. Which could also be down to the birth control.

Avatar f tn My breast and nipples were so tender the whole time I was on BC, the brown discharge after intercourse could have been your period coming back. I remember it took me forever to get regulated once I got off and I definitely remember the brown spotting from time to time.
Avatar f tn I'm on birth control and i suddenly have brown discharge 2 weeks before my period. I had sex a little over 2 weeks ago w/ a condom and he did not finish in me. when i saw the discharge, took a test and confirmed i am not pregnant. I started getting the discharge on Sunday. I got my cartilage pierced 1 week before that and it didn't hurt until sunday as well. i also developed a cyst behind my ear (still on head and not on ear) . help! Thanks.
Avatar f tn The blood varies from red to brown. I did notice more acne on my face also. Is this just my period but 2 weeks earlier? I stopped bleeding now and now it's just brown discharge. I'm very worried since I'm only 17. Thank you for your help!
Avatar f tn Hi. I'm 19 years old. Today I went to the bathroom and saw there was spotting in my underwear. At first I thought I was starting my period but then I looked closer and saw it was a dark drown. This has never happened before. I have not had sex in a while. I've tried researching this and it wasn't much help. I am on birth control but this has never happened before. I don't mean to overreact but I have cancer in my family and was told I may be of high risk.
Avatar f tn I had a longer period than normal about 6 days and i started my next pack of birth control while on my period cause the other one had finished. The last day of my period i got these brown gooey clumps when i pee coming from my vagina everytime i peed. Its a week later now and every so often when i wipe i get that brown gooey discharge.
Avatar f tn ( I know,not very effective) Anyways, I was due to get my period on Sunday, October 11th, but I started getting brown discharge on the 9th, I did get my real period on sunday, and it was normal but after my period had ended I started getting the brown discharge again. Ive only been on birth control for two months, so I was thinking maybe its from that? Im extremely stressed out over this!! Any help anyone could give me would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks!
1702200 tn?1314136766 No, before I started birth control I never had this problem. Maybe a little bit a few days after my period but not for a full week before my period. Also, I missed a few pills for this month. Do you think this could be happening because of that?
Avatar n tn is it wierd to have a brown discharge the week before your period?
Avatar f tn Hi I'm 18 and have never had sex my last period was jan. 27 I always have irregular periods but never like this I'm having brown discharge sometimes with blood like my period but then it stops its been doing this for three days what could it be?

Avatar f tn I am 18 and I have had quite a few sexual partners, some long term, and some just flings. I am on birth control. I just recently had sex when i was about a day away from starting my last period.. i had a little spotting at the time and the next day i started it.. The last time i had sex my birth control patch (evra) got ripped off with my clothes un-noticed.. I am wondering if this means i am pregnant or what it means? i am kind of scared.
Avatar n tn I started my period when I was very young and was irregular for years before I got on birth control. It was the best decision I ever made. Not only did it regulate me but I would also know when I would have my period so I could plan activities around it. I would not be worried about the discharge unless they are unusually smelly or have puss or anything puss like about them.
Avatar f tn I've been on birth control for over a year, since my last pregnancy. I use the 21 day pack continuously so I don't have a period. Day before I noticed a brown discharge and yesterday I was spotting, pinkish or streaks of blood with discharge. Also experiencing very mild cramps and headache but with terrible lower back pain (no nausea). I'm wondering if its possible to be pregnant?
Avatar f tn The brown discharge is most likely old blood that took awhile to come out. I get that sometimes. And it's perfectly normal for birth control to affect your body differently after you have a baby. Before I had my first, I was on seasonique and after about 2 years I stayed bleeding through it and had to switch. After she was born, we tried it again and it worked perfectly. It's possible that you don't need as high of a dosage anymore, OR that birth control just isn't right for you.
Avatar f tn The only time i have had any brown discharge is when my period is ending..it is probably from your birth control and your period cycle may be changing..
Avatar f tn Hi all. I'm 17 years old and I've been on birth control for a little more than a year and a half. I've had brown discharge before but not the week before my period, but during my ovulation. I'm a little confused as to what this means because it's never happened to me before and if I should go see a doctor about it. As of right now, it seems that the discharge is slowing or stopping I can't figure out which one at this point in time.
Avatar f tn Hi last month I had a heavy period but it only lasted for 3 days, now this month I started having light brown spotting 5 days before my period is due. It turned into heavy brown discharge for one day, then it flowed red like normal for a day. It was just a little lighter then usual. Then it stopped completely for hours, and now it's brown discharge again. I've had irregular periods my whole life. I'm 23 now, and a virgin, so I know I'm not pregnant.
Avatar f tn I will get my period for 2 weeks even while using birth control properly. If i go off birth control my period simply does not stop. When it is not my period, I notice brown discharge most of the time. My question is, why is my period this way?
Avatar f tn I had brown discharge for 5 days before my last period...I had a normal period. It came when it was souppose to and lasted the usual length. The brown discharge was kinda heavy and very dark. My next period is due in 15 days. I had protected sex a few weeks before this happened,and had protected sex 2 nights prior to the brown discharge starting. After the last time I had sex I took 2 of my birth control pills that I had missed,I didn't know if that could have messed up my hormonal balances?
