why would I have a pinkish discharge

I have not been sexually active in a year...I did have sex, two days ago and sense, I have had a pinish discharge. I did of course used a condom.....

Hi!
Good for you for using the condom!  ( Or rather for getting him to!). Depending upon where you are in your cycle, the discharge could represent a little spotting--it could be coming from the uterine lining.  It could also come from a fibroid or polyp.  If it goes away, and never comes back, I wouldn't worry about it too much, BUT if it persists or get worse, or happens everytime you have intercourse, you should probably get a thorough check-up!
Good luck!

The same thing happened to me, and I just had a hydroscopy last week. I do not know exactly what that is, as no one explained it to me. I am still bleeding, is there anything else I need to do? Is it normal, and exactly what is a hydroscopy?
Thank you,
