Welcome to the MedHelp forum!
A dark discharge from vagina can be due to a foreign body (like a condom or tempon left behind) or due to cervical cancer or dysplasia, fibroids in uterus, endometriosis, or due to fungal infection. You will need ultrasound, STD panel and PAP smear for confirmed diagnosis. All these can also cause pain during sex.
Do discuss this with your gynecologist and get yourself examined. Take care!
