Just got off my period a week ago and am now having brown discharge
The last couple times i have had relations with my BF has been before i needed to take my BC or i completely left it at home and forgot about it.. i wasnt worried because i had my period a week ago and everything was fine. but now a week later i started to bleed again. but its only a brown/light pink discharge only when i wipe. it comes and goes but i am getting worried because this has never happened to me before. could someone please give me some advice.

Spotting happens for a variety of reasons and forgetting to take your pill or not taking it as you usually do is one of them. Be careful as it may be a sign that you are not covered in terms of birth control right now. I'd use back up protection for now (condoms). Try to take your pill consistently. good luck
