Question
this is gross sorry - a few days ago my discharge was a reddish/pink. today it was brown & it has an odor. should i get some over the counter cream first then go to the doctor?
Answer
Well, if you are sexually active, I vote for the doctor. If not, it may be normal post-period discharge, so give it a few days.
