Hello! My name is xxxx and I ve been have brown stringy discharge for about 2 weeks. My period should start in 2 days. I am on the pill . Sometimes there is light bleeding , especially in the mornings. I have been very stressed out this month. I have been having intense irritation and redness near my vaginal opening. I do not know if this is associated or not because I have lichen sclerosis in my vulvar/vaginal area and it could just be a flare up.
