cramping after just starting birth control

Brown discharge is discharge with old blood, this can sometimes happen if you have old blood and it's normal. If you have had more discharge than normal remember that when you ovulate, discharge production increases but you should see your OB/GYN if it is sudden and lasts longer than a few days.

Thanks for the response.

I think the stress of the possibility of being pregnant is taking a huge physical effect on my body. My period ended less than a week ago but my underwear seems to be really wet all the time. I also had a little brown discharge for a couple days after. What does this mean?

Hi Anon,

Thanks for your question.

No, there is no chance of pregnancy. 

Diarrhea and cramping are not side effects of birth control pills-- it could be caused by stress or be a stomach virus but it isn't caused by your pills. The cramping alone can be due to your period being on its way or even ovulation cramping but chances are that in your case it's going hand in hand with the diarrhea. 

Hope this helps,

Rosa
