Hi Everyone
I have had brown discharge in all my pregnancies. I am currently 7 1/2 weeks pregnant again and lately when we have sex I will have brown discharge afterwards. It will be just for that day, until we have sex again and then its back for the day.
Does anyone else get this after sex? Anyone know why?
Thanks
Natalie

Sorry Natalie I can't say why it is happening. But a brown discharge usually indicates old blood. Maybe sex is "flushing" it out. (just a stab in the dark)

It is better to be safe than sorry though and get it checked out by your doctor.

Have not had this myself, but have heard that the brown discharge after sex is caused from the cervix being irritated. It is said to not be harmful but as it is early in your pregnancy I would advise to be very careful and maybe abstain from sex untill after the 12week.
All the best!
