AnswerBrown discharge is usually "old" blood that is being extruded from the uterus. This is usually blood that did not come out during your last period. It has nothing to do with the abortion you had or with the pills you are now using. Just keep a record of all your bleeding for the next few months. It is quite normal to have a period such as you describe. Don't worry about it.
