Welcome to EmpowHER. I am glad you reached out to us. Let me begin by reassuring you that I do not think you are pregnant. Next, your vagina is located inside of your body. Your outer labia, which is the vulva and labia, are the parts you can see and touched with toilet tissue.
Sperm can live outside the body for about 20 minutes. Once the semen is dry, the sperm is dead.
There was never any risk when your boyfriend touched your genital area because you were wearing clothes.
Dark brown discharge is a symptom of “old blood” and/or old uterine lining which did not left the uterus during regular menstrual period. Often the dark brown discharge is just remains of delayed period – most often associated with old endometrial tissues.
When you get a late period or following period with old cellular lining actually removed together with other blood cellular material, you can experience the dark brown discharge instead of period.
Brown discharge is normally just “old blood” that has been oxidized and left the uterus and/or vagina late or later.
Sometimes dark brown discharge could be a symptom of the damage of endometrial cells, or a symptom of endometrial changes because of hormonal dysfunctions.
There are only few causes of dark brown discharge which should be considered as a serious. These are cervical cancer, ovarian cancer and sexually transmitted diseases.
