just a little fyi you can have discharge, and maybe even slight spotting/bleeding when pregnant. Not all people will have it but it is possible to have a normal healthy pregnancy with discharge and/or spotting, without actually having a miscarriage.

Sounds like you have an std, seeing as there is bumps and it's itchy and you have pain after intercourse.

I'm currently taking Camrese, and have been for about 6 months now. I don't usually have a period, except for every 3 months with it. I recently forgot to take it for about 3 or 4 days(forgot to take it with me over the weekend), and started back up the way it said I should. I had started my period at that point, and figured it'd go away after taking it for a week or so again. Well, I took it for a week, and finally my period stopped. I had sometimes had this brown discharge afterwards that lasted a day or two maybe, and I figured it was just leftover, dried blood. Well, it's been a week since I have stopped my period, and I'm taking the birth control on a daily basis, like I'm supposed to, and I still keep getting this brown discharge. I don't know whether it's dried blood or what. It's usually gone by now. I haven't had sex with my boyfriend of 2 years in about 2 1/2 to 3 weeks, and we always, and I mean ALWAYS use protection. Neither of us want to be parents yet. Anyways, a condom has never broken, never had holes, nothing, I would've noticed. I don't know what this is, but of course googling the symptoms have brought up the whole "you could be pregnant," "you could have cervical cancer," etc. And that's not cool, I don't want either of those things. So, I don't know what it is, and I am freaking myself out over here, not wanting to have cancer, not wanting to be a mom, etc. So, yeah.

Sincerely,

Freaked the Hell Out

Out of curiosity. ..I am also searching. At 35 and having 2 children at all other times I have been on the Nuva ring. Usually I control my period by keeping it in a bit extra until it breaks through. However since my last period which was full I have been having a non stop black menstrual cycle. It is gross and I know it's old blood but why

Hey ladies. I just wanted to tell y'all that I was having this problem too. I went through almost a whole pack of loestrin 24 with brown spotting. I read to take 1/4 of a teaspoon or 1000mg of vitamin c powder at the same time u take your pill. It's supposed to help ur body absorb the estrogen. Also taking it at night keeps the pill in ur system longer since the digestive tract slows during the night. I started taking my pill at 7pm I've been talking vitamin c every night for three days now and the bleeding stopped!!!! YES! SEX!!! Lol! Seriously it's worth a try. I got vitamin c powder from the vitamin shop. Good luck!

You probably had or have an STD

I have been taking Sronyx for 2 months as well, and I can tell you your discharge symptoms are exactly like mine. However, the only sex I've ever had was non-penetrative and happened a few months back, so I think the brown with blood is because of the BC. I don't have any discomfort or noticeable odor though, it's just annoying because it's staining my underwear.

Hi Hi so did your Pap smear come back normal? I am a person who gets easily worried and thinks my symptoms must mean the absolute worse...I have been experiencing the same brown discharge you have all been describing and I am on bc, had several visits to the doctor and they reassure me all is okay but I am too young to have a Pap smear (they aren't offered until 25 in the UK) so I am not 100% reassured...

I'm having the same problem! I have just had my period about a week ago and when it first came, it started out brown, then after that it became extremely heavy. On the second or third day of my period, it changed to dark red but it was brownish the last three days of it. I have been having cramping and nausea along with the discharge. I just started taking the birth control about a month ago. I'm concerned it's messing up my system.
