What Causes Brown Discharge During Periods?

I am taking 1/35 Nortrel for birth control. I just recently switched from my last birth control, which has less hormones, over to Nortrel. I just finished up my 2nd pack, and when it comes time to my period all I get is brown discharge. I thought I might be pregnant so I took multiple tests and they call came back negative, so this month when i missed my period again I took another test and still came back negative. Please help! Can Nortrel stop your period completely?

Hi,

Brown discharge is common when you are on oral contraception pills. If you have taken pills properly chances of pregnancy is very less.
