Im not allergic to condoms but every time i have sex my bf uses a condom (we use latex lubricated trojans) but there’s a white discharge that comes out & i know its some sort of infection. I was diagnosed w/ Bacterial Vaginosis & i’ve used 2 different treatments but the discharge still comes out so i looked it up & i guess condoms so cause it.

If anybody has had this happen please tell me what should i do, which condoms don’t cause this?? please help!

THanks

I have been TTC for 18 months & only last week I found out I have BV (Bacterial Vaginosis)
I have probably had it for a year I only found out last week when I went for swabs I have started treatment with antibiotics but just wanted to know if that was the reason why I have not conceived yet

This is quite a touchy subject for a lot of people and myself but I need to know. I haven’t had sex since November 2010 so I know the infection isn’t caused by that. But every few months I need to go to the doctor for BV treatment. I am clean and healthy but upset about this as it can cause a garlic-type odor which puts me off initiating sexual contact. I don’t know if this is related but since I was in my mid-teens i have become extremely sore from penetration. Whether it be a vibrator or penis (but not fingers). Help please.. p.s Don’t bother answering if you don’t know anything about this.
I clearly stated that you need not bother responding to this question if you know nothing about it MacG. Grow up, idiot.

Hey. im a 24 year old female..
Iv always been pretty hairy.. i could deal with that. Then i had my daughter 4 years ago.. and now i am seriously FULL BLAST hairy!!! Is this normal ?? I have hairs on my damn face.. really REALLY hairy " down there " its almost unmanageable.. back of my thighs i have really dark long thick hairs… I never had it this bad before i had my daughter.
And my period is always late.. sometimes up to a month late..
I keep getting bacterial vaginosis, i have gone to the doctor 4 times because of it.. but as soon as i stop the treatment it comes right back !!
Iv also got a face full of pimples ( i never had them before my daughter, even in my teen years )
Could my hormones be out of balance =\ ?? Going to the dr is really expensive where i live.. and i dont wanna go unless i have to. just tired of being hairy and unpredictable periods.
anyone else had this problem? im tired of it….

After months of suffering with constant vaginal irritation I have finally been diagnosed with BV (Bacterial Vaginosis) I am happy to finally know what the problem is but the antibiotics they gave me (Metronidazole) didn’t work! They also gave me Aqueous cream which is a big help to soothe the irritation during the day but not getting rid of it. I have been searching online for cures and have come up with 3 things and I was wondering if any of you ladies have tried these and have any luck!

1 – Putting a tampon in to plain natural yogurt and inserting it in to the vagina at night for a week

2 – acidophillus and folic acid supplements

3 – Douching with with Hydrogen Peroxide (which I really don’t want to do but if it works i’ll give it a go!)

Or any other treatments that you ladies swear by.

your help will be greatly appreciated

(And no stupid answers please)

My fiance and I have been together over eight years. I’ve always had my yearly check ups, pap smears and STD screenings yearly. Two years into the relationship, I contract bacterial vaginosis. It is sexually transmitted. I’ve had the same partner which is him and I kept contracting bv for a few months and then it eventually went away with treatment. Now in March I had a reaction I thought was from Vagisil feminine powder because as soon as I stopped using the powder the irritation eased a bit. My fiance from the first week in March until May 8 had beenincarceratedd. My irritation started again in early May. Then it got so severe last week with all the itching and downright unbearable irritation. I told my fiance about it and now he thinks that I’ve been sleeping around, which I haven’t and he thinks I have herpes. I just had a pap smear in March of this year and all was fine. I also had STD screen and no diseases. We would of had our first child together four years ago, but it was an ectopic and my left tube ruptured and I had to have emergency surgery. I don’t know what to think but he makes me feel guilty when I haven’t even done anything wrong. All I do is work, attend college and back home and maybe shop here and there but that’s about it. and I told him about it I have had an STD in my past and told him this when we met. He also told me his sexual history which he said all he contracted was crabs. I don’t know where all of this is coming from but it’s upsetting me. I don’t want to argue with him over this. I visit my dr very regularly. I bet she gets tired of seeing my face! Him on the other hand doesn’t go to the dr at all unless it’s an emergency. I just don’t know? I need some advice on how to handle him when he tries to twist things to make it seem like I’m the one in the wrong about things and I get to feeling like I have to defend myself when I know I’ve done nothing wrong.

I’ve recently been tested for HIV and other STD’s everything came back negative. I’ve always had yearly Pap smears and all come back normal. In February of this year I used Vagisil powder and I got irritation and a rash from using it. I thought it went away until in May the irritation started again. It got so bad I got a huge rash in the folds of my thighs in my pubic area. I have had only one partner for over eight years. He was incarcerated from March until May of this year. I don’t know what to think, but I am going to my doctor Monday. If I have something, where did it come from since I haven’t slept around? My fiance is saying that while he was in jail he never had any breakouts or irritation. We do use Gain fabric softener and Surf washing detergent on our clothes. I was thinking maybe something in these may be causing the irritation, rash and itching. I am so afraid he’s going to try and blame me when I haven’t slept around, but he has on several occasions. He claims he used protection. I don’t know, but I do know I haven’t had an STD but once since being with him. It was bacterial vaginosis, which with treatment went away. Why do I feel so guilty when I feel I’m not the blame for these rashes we both have? If anyone has experienced these symptoms, what can it be?
Thanks for responding ladies. I’m trying not to panic or think bad things. I’m going to continue to pray about it and Monday visit my doctor. Again, thanks.
