Q: Change in birth control - brown discharge
asked by: kjay32 on August 5th, 2008

A couple months ago I changed my birth control. I was using Apri (which wasn't covered by my insurance), my sister took Lessina (looks exactly like Apri) and is covered by her insurance so I started taking hers so I wouldn't have to pay for mine... assuming our birth control was the same, just called something different. Inbetween switching birth controls I didn't take any birth control for one month. The first month of using Lessina I started to have brown discharge days before and after I got my period. When not on my period I usually have white discharge. Last month I didn't get my period at all.. just the dark brown discharge for a couple days then nothing for a few days. For about a week I've had brown discharge, I'm supposed to get my period tomorrow but I don't feel like I'm about to get my period. I also sometimes am really itchy down there! Anyone know what's wrong with me?
