A condom broke, and I need to prevent pregnancy as soon as possible. I took Postinor 2 within two hours of the incident, and I am 18 years old with PCOS. My last period started on April 4 and ended about 7 days later. I had sex and the condom broke on April 25. My menstrual cycles are irregular due to PCOS, sometimes being a week or two late, but usually not more than 40 days. This was the first time I took an emergency contraceptive pill. What are the chances of pregnancy, and is there anything else I should know?

I just got off my period a week ago and finished my spotting, but now I'm getting brown discharge. I am sexually active but use condoms. I took a pregnancy test which was negative. The discharge started yesterday and is quite noticeable, especially when I use the restroom. It feels like I'm in my period again but it's just brown discharge mixed with regular clear discharge. The discharge is creamy and has a normal odor. My last period started on June 29th and ended around July 4th or 5th. I have low iron and a family history of ovarian cysts and ovarian cancer. What could be causing this brown discharge?
