Q: Something Kinda Scary

Alright well I posted something awhile ago about my b.C. (orto) not working correctly, since then i've talked w/ my doctor and been switched to the pill. But now my discharge has a hint of red (blood) in it sometimes. And sometimes I find that its dark brown or even black. I know its not normal but I dont know what it is. Could it be an std? I looked up some of them but didn't find my condition as a side effect. And my boyfriend is going to the doctor today about burning when he urinates.. What is going on here???

Probably Bleeding...

You might be spotting, most likely the discharge you are having is older blood in your vagina. New blood is red in color while old blood is brown.

You should see your doctor about it, and if you are really worried about a possible std, then you should get checked out.

You also might want to try doucheing, as gross as it is it might just flush what is in your system out.

Well yesterday, my boyfriend went to the doctor and confermed that the doctors claim he has clamydia. I called my doctor right away and made an appointment, so today no school and i'm waiting for the bad news. Update later, on symptoms and treatment.. Thanks for everyones help. Something kinda scary doesn't cut it, I was being kinda stupid.
