   So, my boyfriend and I had unprotected sex on day 12 of my menstrual cycle. And the next day I had brown discharge, for 2 days. Then it cleared for a day or 2. And I started to have brownish mucus like discharge. And it has been 4 days since. What are the likely explanation on this?

      Some females may get a red to brown discharge during ovulation. It is possible that you noticed this discharge coming out of the vaginal canal.

      Another explanation of this discharge may be due to trauma/ discharge during intercourse.

      Appears to be an infection.

      Common causes- past sexual activities, infected tampons or dirty toilet seats.

      See a gyne at the earliest. You may need antibiotics.

            Most infections do not interfere with menses. They’re likely to come back on time.

      Why was MVA done?

      Likely to be an infection. You need to be examined by a gyne for diagnosis.

      It’s normal for your age to see such discharges. Start using and panty liner. Don’t bother, unless you see redness or swelling down there.
