Having Noticed A Thick Brown Snotty Discharge While Being On Contraceptive Implant

Hi, I had a baby a nearly a year ago and had a contraceptive implant put in a few months ago now, I have been having thick, snotty, brown vaginal discharge irregularly since and I'm a bit worried about it and unsure what to do?? I have also had BV a couple times in past so not sure if its related?
Please help!

Hello,

Brown discharge is just indicative of old blood. It is nothing to be worried about unless you develop any pain, itching, redness etc.

Hope this answers your question
Please let me know if you need further clarification
