brown discharge after first time sex Posted: 07-16-08 16:37pm
Recently i have had sex for the first
time, and now about a month later i have
been getting brown discharge, about a week
before my period. There is also discomfort
and i don't know whether this is normal,
or if it is to do with losing my
virginity, i'd really appreciate some
help!

It's probably just some old blood that's
just finding it's way out. As long as you
used any form of birth control when you
had sex then I wouldn't really be worried
about it.
If you miss your period, then test.

Yeah...I've always wonderd about
that....what does the brown discharge
mean?...I've had that before that its
either before or after I get my period
that I throw brown discharge...I've just
always assumed why it was a different
color?....And this happens rarely......

You can get brown for a number of reasons,
but in your case it sounds like old blood
left over from another period or your most
recent one.
Brown blood is just blood that has been
there for awhile. It starts out bright
red, then becomes deoxygenated and isn't
as bright anymore-- or brown.
