[|Human|] Hi, Last month (early August) I stopped taking my birth control pills with intensions on going back to my doctor to be prescribed new ones. I had a slightly heavier period when I stopped taking them. I was expecting my cycle earlier this month so when I had spotting I thought it was normal however I never got my period. I ve been having a brown discharge for two weeks now. I have no foul smell or pain. It s more of a nuisance than anything. I ve had the same partner for the past 6years and did have intercourse in August but the chances of pregnancy are very slim to none.
[|AI|]  Hello, Welcome to Chat Doctor. I have gone through your query and understand your concern. Brown discharge is normal in women taking birth control pills. Brown vaginal discharge can just be the old residual blood from the periods and hence harmlessness can happen as your body adjusts to the artificial hormones in the pills, which work like natural hormones to regulate your uterus when it sheds its lining. If the brown discharge is associated with odor, consult your gynecologist immediately. Because it could be due to infection. Hope this helps. Please reply for further queries. Wishing you good health.
