Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ? Pleaseh itype your query here... hi, my period started on April 3and ended around April 8. It was lighter than usual and two days after it ended I had sexual intercourse with my boyfriend. Today, around three days after I get a really light brown dischArge but no pain and no odour.

Hallow Dear,

Any type of bleeding is not a symptom of pregnancy. In fact, any bleeding during any stage of pregnancy denotes risk to the pregnancy.

You had intercourse shortly within few days after the menstrual bleeding had stopped showing. In fact even though the bleeding does not show outside, some bleeding may get pent up inside. Due to the sexual activity, such bleeding may show outside which usually is very light brown in colour. Brown bleeding always denotes stale blood.

You do not have any symptom of pregnancy. In fact the first cardinal symptom of pregnancy is missing a period which you have not. So do not be worried about the possibility of pregnancy.

I hope this takes off your stress.
