If you take the pill, then it is protected sex (the pill doesn't protect against STDs but if you're in a year long relationship and you haven't been using condoms, that's not really a concern anymore)
That is normal, you're probably not pregnant.

its normal to have brown-looking discharge after your period. this can last from 1 day after to the next week after you end your cycle.
to put it simply; its just dried menstrual blood mixed with normal discharge. you have nothing to worry about. :)
take care

Well, it is normal to have an occasional brownish discharge when you're on the pill, especially when you first start it. Don't panic. Its actually "old" blood that wasn't discharged during your last period. Totally normal. However, I've heard about some recalls and health problems with Yasmin, so I think you should ask your doctor about it. THere have been some pretty serious issues like strokes and blood clots reported with Yas, so definitely check it out. But the spotting is most likely normal. I've been on the pill for 15 years and I still have discharge from time to time.
