    Question

    PLEASE HELP ME! I am in terrible need of help and advice. I am sexually active every now and then. The last time I had sex was three weeks ago and I started to have brown discharge and an AWFUL odor. I just had sex April 11, 2010 and I have this same brown discharge and AWFUL odor. What is this> Please help. Should I seek medical attention? ASAP? Thanks. I took antibotics for it the first time and it cleared up now its back the second time.

    Answer

    It sounds like whatever you had came back, or you were reinfected by your partner. Back to the doctor and ask what it is you have. If it is a sexually tranmsitted infection, then no sex until your partner and anyone he is having sex with are all treated and cured.
