Need insight, I have irregular brown discharge.

Posted , 7 users are following.

I had unprotected sex two weekends ago (on sat). I took a plan b pill that following Monday and I got std tested the following week on Weds. Then the following Friday is when I got brown discharge... At first I thought maybe it was nothing but it is going on four days of having discharge like this. imageimage What is this? Has anybody experienced this before?

    Hi cay,

    This is spotting (aka bleeding between periods) and is to be expected after taking emergency hormonal contraception (Plan B, levonorgestrel 1500mcg).

    Your next period could either be heavier or lighter than usual, but it should still be on time.

    But if you miss your next period, then take a pregnancy test.

    Rgds,

    Adhari

      I feel like this is different from spotting because the particles have like a texture to it which is weird its like its powdery clumbs that come out when I pee.

      is it still going on?

      maybe its a side effect of something. I would get that checked to my sure its not an underlying issue.

      no real luck, the nurse practitioner had me pee in a cup she said since my urine was clean there is nothing to worry about & that womens body are constantly changing its probably just a hormonal change in my body I even showed her the pics she said oh that's normal... so Idk and I even told her I'm starting to get abdominal pain she said to take an ibuprofen my reg gyno is booked with apts until July 15 so I'm going to try and find a walk in clinic or see if the health dept has any apt available soon because this is not normal and the pain is getting worse

      I went to a walk in clinic and the nurse never really diagnosed me she just wrote me prescriptions for BV & yeast infection so far I only been taking Flagyl and the brown color went away, the abdominal pain went away and the large amount of discharge when peeing has went away. My only concern now is my discharge is white, thick, clumpy and still a large amount not as much as it was but still a good amount more than normal so maybe that is the yeast infection.

      Hi!!

      Glad you were able to get it check out, im not happy with the nurse not properly diagnosing you, but maybe she just seen cases like this so much that she knows her stuff by just looking!

      I believe thats a yeast infection or at least thats what it sounds like, keep using the treatment and see if it goes away Best Of Luck!!!!! and again keep me posted.
