I have been experiencing symptoms consistent with multiple sclerosis (MS) for 8 months, but my diagnosis has been inconsistent.

I had unprotected sex four days ago and noticed a brown discharge two days later, which has now turned pink. I also have cramps and sore breasts. I am 36 years old, my periods are regular, and I have used an emergency contraceptive pill in the past. What could be causing this and what should I do?
