Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have noticed a small brown stain in my underwear that appears to be coming from my bladder or urethra. It s too far forward to be coming from my vagina. I recently took to much VSL#3 for a few days and it upset my GI Tract. Could this be related to that or is more likely to be something else?
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Brown discharge may happen right after periods, and is just "cleaning out" your vagina. It can also be related to an infection. So I would suggest you to do a vaginal exam and a discharge culture for more information and proper treatment.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
