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!
