Re: help i think i have an sti

Not necessarily. Itching and a discharge can come from a simple bacterial infection but the browny colour could signify the presence of blood. Make sure you have had a recent cervical smear and get a vaginal swab done to test for infection. Your symptoms should readily respond to treatment.
