Is it normal to have brownish when taking birth control pills?

Patient's question:

Started taking birth control pills at the beginning of the month. My period hasn't come this month. Brownish-red discharge

Doctor's answer:

Hello, leukorrhea is an important indicator of women's health status. If you have already experienced abnormal leukorrhea symptoms but ignore them, it is likely that gynecological diseases will soon affect you. Therefore, you must take abnormal leukorrhea seriously and seek timely treatment for the disease. Leukorrhea with bleeding indicates a more serious condition. If there is no bleeding but instead an odor or yellowish color, it may be due to vaginal inflammation. In such cases, it is important to seek treatment as soon as possible, as the condition is relatively mild at this stage.
