A few months ago, my gynecologist diagnosed me with bacterial vaginosis. He gave me a prescription of Metrogel with a refill. I used the medication as directed, and the symptoms cleared up for a couple of weeks at best. He told me that it might come back, so I had the prescription refilled. The symptoms are still occurring. Now, what? I’m very frustrated. It’s affecting my self esteem to say the least, and it’s definitely interfering with my sex life.

I have experienced what I thought was the stomach flu this week. It began with a headache followed by a temperature and vomitting and diahorrea. At day 4 I felt much better except now I have bloatedness and my stomach seems very irritable? Could this just be part of recovering from stomach flu or could I have a bacterial infection?

ok so everytime my boyfriend and i have sex without a condom even for a minute i end up with symptoms of bv. i know i should see a doctor but cant at the moment so im trying to figure out other cures. in the past, ive used monistat and it gets rid of the symptoms. can you use monistat too much or is all it doing is just taking away symptoms?? what are some other natural treatments?

Everytime i go to the the doctor they give me the same medication but it dosesnt seem to work cause i still have the same symptoms the first couple of times it did work but now it doesnt what can i do?

A month ago i had yeast infection, and then got my period and it seemed that it went away. i had intercourse with my bf, but it hurt really bad so we stopped. I thought that it was probably the yeast infection so i took monistat 7. Then we tried it again after i had finished with the treatment and it still hurt. I don’t itch anymore, and the only symptoms i have is painful intercourse and really watery discharge. what is this????

i’m pretty sure i have bacterial vaginitis… but i lost my health insurance and i can’t afford to go to the doctor. and all i’ve found on this is prescription meds…. is there anything else that could help?

I have terrible bacterial vaginosis symptoms and and antibiotics just don’t work for me. I’m tired of useless creams and ointments, can anyone recommend something that works?
