What Causes Brown Discharge After A Surgical Abortion?

i had a surgical abortion a month ago and started on the pill a week after the abortion, i bled hevily after the abortion for 3 days then lightly for another 2 weeks- since then i've had brown discharge. I took a week off the pill to bleed and it was normal, when i started taking it again the brown discharge came back. Have i got an infection?
