Vaginal infection does not respond to treatment?

At first, I was diagnosed and treated for a yeast infection. It cleared up but came back in a couple of months. Then, bacterial vaginosis, also treated and cleared up. A month ago, symptoms started again, and I was diagnosed and treated for BV – but the symptoms did not even lessen (I took Metronidazole orally). Now, I still have whatever it is, and it does not respond to Monistat either. What to do? Tested for STD’s, btw, all clean.

I agree that you should have blood work done by your physician to check your blood sugar. I suffer from BV regularly because my husband is not circumsized and I’m prone to infection. He cleans well, but the bacteria that gets trapped under the foreskin transfers to me during sex and then I get BV. It’s a real pain. I tried Metronidazole orally too, but the vaginal gel applications are way better. Just make sure to use it the full five days, at night, and NO SEX when you’re on it. Definitely call your dr.

Keep trying, but you may want to ask your doctor to check your blood sugar and maybe doing some other bloodwork. Recurrent vaginal infections can be a sign of immune compromise or also an early sign of diabetes mellitus.
