<s>[INST] Hi, I am on birth control. And forgot to take a pill on Friday, and by Sunday I began to have brown discharge slight bleeding. I also doubled up on the pill on Saturday. I also have a slight burning sensation down there, and my doctor gave me medicine for a yeast infection which i took yesterday. She also said that it was normal for me to bleed after missing a pill, but the burning sensation is freaking me out. Is this normal? [/INST] Hi, The burning sensation is most likely due to the infection of the vagina for which you are being treated. It is not due the missed pill effect. Please do not worry, just take the medication prescribed by your consultant and maintain genital hygiene. Abstain from intercourse until your vaginitis is healed, and your partner also may need treatment. Use loose-fitting undergarments to allow ventilation for the time-being. Hope you find this information helpful. Wish you good health. </s>
