Light Brown Vaginal Discharge. Taking Birth Control Pills. Pregnant Or Side Effects Of Pill?

I started taking birth control pills 7 days ago. I took my first pill on the first day of my period. According to information packet that came with the pill it says I will be protected immediately and no back up birth control is necessary. I am having light brown stringy vaginal discharge and I was wondering if that is an early sign or pregnancy or just a side effect from the pill

hi.. thanks for using HCM..
you have started with OCPs for the birth control..
this tablets should be started from 5th day onwards .. you have started on the wrong day(day1)..
now stop the tablet let for the withdrawl bleeding and start the pills from 5th day of the cycle.. meanwhile use some other contraceptive like condoms..
all the very best..
