Suggest Treatment For Sharp Pain In The Lower Abdominal Area
I had been feeling sharp pain in the lower abdominal region for 15 days before starting my periods and that s just two days after I took a morning after pill. My periods started today with severe pain and a yellowish green discharge at the start then turning brown and finally normal to red (sorry to mention each state). Is it something to be worried about?

Hi,
The yellow-green discharge may indicate that you have an infection which is currently being masked by the period.
When your period resolves the discharge may be seen again. If this is the case then you can be assessed at that time and treated with a course of antibiotics.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
