Q: Brown Clotty Discharge

Hi there!

ok - here is the sequence of events...

Ended Period - Sunday/Monday

Had sex for the first time in a couple years - Tuesday

(no bleeding or anything irregular since my period ended)

Brown, clotty discharge started Saturday. Then on Sunday it seemed to get real heavy briefly with large amounts of tissue coming through (much like tissue when I'm on my period) It is now Monday night and the "clumps/clots" have pretty much gone away, but still an odorless, light brown discharge. (also - I never spot between periods, and have been on birth control for 10 yrs) Is this old blood from my last period?? I thought so at first, but its gotten heavier, and its been a week with no signs of blood - so why wouldn't this have happened earlier in the week? I also wasn't sure if not being sexually active for so long, and then being active could have anything to do with it.

I plan to call my doctor but wanted to ask because i'm worried. Please help!!! Should I be worried?? Confused

I don't think there is anything to worry about. If I am intimate with my husband right after my period I can count on having some more bleeding. It may be brown, which is just old blood. Uterine contractions from orgasm will prompt some bleeding right after your period has finished.
