I just started birth control about a month ago. I was supposed to start my period Monday, but instead I started Tuesday, although instead of a menstral flow of bleeding, I started with dark brown. I have been having this brown period for four days now. My boyfriend and I have had sex twice, yet I was on the pill, and we used a condom(that was not broken), and there was never ejaculation in me. I am just wondering if this brown period is a result of me starting birth control or what? Please help

Usually you will have a lighter or different period with the first couple months on the pill. I wouldn't worry about being pregnant at this time. You should notice a norm after 2-3 full months on the pill.

In addition to LadyVipers post I'd like to say good job on using a secondary method of because. Way to go. I wish others would have that forsight...

Yes brown blood is old blood there is no problem with brown blood when u start on the pill most likely the 1st month it changes colour getting rid of the old blood so fresh blood starts 2 appaer when the brown blood is gone don't worry about it
