Question
I haven't been taking birth control for the past 8 months. The last time I had sex (3 months ago) we used a condom but there was a lot of bleeding during sex. Now ever since then, I have been having a brown discharge all the time (before and after my period). I wanted to know what the reasons could be for bleeding and the brown discharge? Please HELP!
Answer
Both the bleeding during intercourse and brown discharge can be symptoms of an infection and you need to see a doctor. I am sorry, but please do not delay any longer!
