Brown Discharge From Vagina, Had Intercourse, Took Pill. Suggestions?

Hi, I had protected sex with my boyfriend on April 27, 2013... half-way through he pulled out to fix the position and then went back inside me. About 20 seconds later he pulled out again because he thought something felt weird. It happens that the condom broke, but he didn't finish inside of it. I was on the last days of my period at the time... just experiencing some of the ends of it. I took plan be less than 24 hours after the incident (so this would be April 28). About two days ago, May 3, 2013 I started experiencing dark brown discharge in my underwear. Sometimes it is heavy, sometimes light. I think that this might be a side effect from the pill, it was my first time taking it. I have read that other people experienced the same thing after taking Plan B One Step. I'm scared!

Hi,
Welcome to HCM,
After going through your history,you should understand that ovulation takes place 14 days prior to expected date.
Last day of period you had unprotected sex chances of pregnancy are almost nil, because that is considered safe period, but you have taken Plan B pill within 24 hours.
Discharge may be due to withdrawal bleeding as pill causes some hormonal imbalance.

It is better to consult a Good Gynecologist and examined and take proper advice.
Please use regular contraceptive and practice safe sex as it protect from unwanted pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases.

Please take care.

Good Luck.
Dr.Akhilesh Dubey M.D.
