Okay, so I’ve got a bit of a situation on my hands. Basically, about 11 days ago, my boyfriend and I had sex for the first time—we used a condom both times. To be totally honest, though, we did try a little "practice run" the day before that without protection—I honestly don't know what I was thinking there—but it didn't really go anywhere because it was painful for me and he couldn't fully get in, so we just stopped and moved on to other things. It wasn't super painful, and I didn't notice any bleeding at the time, though I might have missed it since I was wearing red underwear (I have a total thing for red, bless my heart). Then, four days ago, we had sex again, and we were careful with protection this time too. Again, more red underwear, so I didn't see anything. But then yesterday, I noticed this brownish discharge—just a few spots, really—and when I wiped, there was a tiny bit of something else there. Based on my usual schedule, my period isn't supposed to start until the 26th, and I am low-key freaking out. This is the first time I've ever dealt with spotting, and I can't help but wonder if it's an early sign of pregnancy or if it's just my body getting ready for my period. I've actually been suspecting I might have PCOS for a while now, so maybe it's related to that? I don't know what to do, I'm honestly spiraling a little bit... is this normal? I'm just really scared because this has never happened to me before, especially right after being intimate.

edit: My cycle usually runs about 31-32 days
