What Does Delayed Period Along With Brown Spotting Indicate?
Hello my last period was from october 7 to october 11. we had sex with a condum on october 10 becuase there was hardly any bleeding and also on october 31st. the couple days after the second time i had brownish discharge and felt as if my vagina was open and slightly leaky with fluid. What are my chances of pregnancy?
Hi, Thanks for posting in HCm. I understand your concern. Since you state that you had taken protection during intercourse with condom on both occasions, it is unlikely that you could be pregnant. However, if you are stating that the periods are delayed, kindly take a urine pregnancy test to know what would be the status. Brownish discharge from vagina could be possible when there is some retained tissues of the previous cycle, which the body might try to expel out just before the next cycle begins. Kindly wait for a couple of days for it to subside and you you should get your periods in case the urine pregnancy test states negative. Otherwise, you need to undergo per speculum and clinical examination by consulting the Gynecologist to know what could be the cause and get it treated accordingly. Hope the information provided would be helpful. All the best.
