Brown Discharge

Brown discharge usually represents "old blood". Good luck to you :)

This can be normal while taking the depo shot or using birth control.

If you are concerned about it, contact your doctor.

i got that when I was on the shot.Also,i had to go to the hospital 2 months into it cause I was passing huge pieces of tissue and bleeding.They said it was due to not having my period for 2 months.So its probably nothing to worry about

brown discharge happens quite often for women on bcp or any other type of hormonal bc. It is due to fluctuating hormones and it is "old blood".
