I have been having what I think to be
excessive discharge regularly for a while
now. It does have somewhat of an odor
that is enough to make me self consious.
It will of course tend to have a brownish
tint right after my period, that I have
heard is normal. It seems to have a
yellow color. I don't like having to
wear the panty liners daily from
embarrasing discharge. I am 19, and have
been sexually active with one person who
was also a virgin when we had sex-so I am
not worried that I could have gotten
somthing. Does anyone know of anything
that helps with this problem? Or maybe
know of a reason that I could be having
it?

It could be something as simple as a yeast
infection.. If you are sexually active,
even if only with one person who is std
free.. You should still start going and
getting regular checkups if you haven't
already (although at 19 it's a good idea
even if you were still a virgin). If it
continues, I would go to a doctor. I
agree it's probably nothing contracted or
anything like that.. But the littlest
things can cause you to get yeast
infections or other infections which would
be best treated by a doctor.

I'm not, and haven't been sexually active
for quite a few months now. After my ex
and I started being sexually active, I did
get a yeast infection, and I had to treat
it a few times since I had it for a while
before going to the gyno. It may have
come back again...Hopefully not. I'll
have to see about going to the doctor I
guess, thanks for the feedback.

Same Problem Posted: 07-30-05 07:44am
I had the same discharge, when I was
having sex with my boyfriend I noticed an
odor and when I went to the bathroom I had
a yellowish/brownish discharge. It only
lasted about a day and when I went to the
doctor they said I had a slight yeast
infection, but no bacterial infections and
I got checked for chlamydia and gonerrhea
and they were all negative. The same
thing happened a couple of months later
too, and the doctor said that it could
either be from having unprotected sex,
because the two fluids might not mix well
together, lol, or from missing a pill.
And I did miss a pill the first time it
happened, and the second time I was a few
hours late. I've now been taking my
pills regularly and haven't had the
problem again. However, this month I
noticed a slight brown discharge right
before I was supposed to get my period,
but no odor, I got my period and now i'm
still having it a little, I don't know if
this is considered breakthrough bleeding
or if it's just my period. If someone
can help me with that i'd appreciate it
