Are Brown, Thick Discharge And Vaginal Bleeding Symptoms Of STD?
I am having dark brown, thick almost fecal looking discharge as well as bleeding from my vagina as well as extremely painful cramping in my abdomen. I ended my menstrual cycle a week prior to this starting and had sexual intercourse a few days after ending my cycle. I am concerned and worried I have an STD. Or is this normal?

Thank you for query.Discharge if excess and foul smelling may be due to infections.As it is brown foul smelling it may be due to bacterial vaginosis. Even menstrual blood may be brown or black if bleeding is too late.You can consult doctor for examination and diagnosis.Dr Bharatesh D Basti
