i just feel really really bad and i want to have all the information on it for him.

Will bacterial vaginosis go away on it’s own?

I think I may have bacterial vaginosis. I am on my 6th day of Monistat 7 and I still have some symptoms so I don’t think it was/is a yeast infection. I have NO health insurance so I can’t go to the doctor. I don’t have a planned parenting clinic in my area. We have a health department but the soonest appointment is in May 08!

My symptoms are now;

a not so fresh smell. Not sure how to descibe the smell. Sometimes it does smell a little fishy, but mostly just doesn’t smell good at all. I can smell it even through pants!

A white/clear discharge.

I did have itching, burning skin with it but the monistat cleared the itch and redness up.

I am a virgin so I know it’s not an STD.

Will this go away on it’s own or is there any at home treatments for bacterial vaginosis?

Bacterial vaginosis question?

Is it possible for bacterial vaginosis to be in a persons system for a long period of time and even after treatments being attempted, it still remained. But is it possible for it to develop into Chlaymidia? My friend just got word from her doctor that while getting her pap for the BV that won’t go away, she now is positive for Chlaymidia. Her husband just came home from Iraq and she wasn’t with anyone else. He just got tested, and he was negative!! Is there any explanation to this? Please only serious answers! Keep the funny ones to yourself!! She is really distraught about this and her husband is also curious as to how this happened. They were both tested when they got married for STD’s and both were clean…aside from the BV.

I hate going to the doctors, but believe I have an infection..?

I’m 98% positive I’ve got Bacterial Vaginosis. Have had it once before awhile back, and it seems I’ve got all the same symptoms again. I was wondering if anyone knew of home remedies or helpful treatments I can buy offline to help me. I hate the doctors! And would love if I was able to save some money by not going, since I don’t have insurance. If in the worst case I have to go, would Planned Parenthood be able to diagnose and help me get the treatment?

Could it be Bacterial Vaginosis?

I have a milky white discharge with barely any odor, itching, and a sore spot. Ive been checked for Herpes recently and it was negative. There isnt an actual sore, just a spot thats very sensitive to the touch. The discharge looks like BV without the odor, but the itching feels like a yeast infection. Cant get to the doc til Monday, can anyone help? Can BV cause sores? Or is it something worse? I have had unprotected sex twice in the last 2 weeks.

How to endure long sex sessions?

This question is rooted from a previous question about cymbalta side effects. My boyfriend just started taking the drug and his sex drive has improved but he’s having trouble cumming which is making sex long and he is eager to cum and he gets a bit rambunctious and doesn’t give up until I tell him I can‘t take anymore. I want to try to be able to keep at it a bit longer. I’ll attach the previous question. Thanks for your suggestions!

Can men get BV and what medication is used to cure it in men?

Everytime my boyfriend and I have sex I get BV 1-2 days later and end up going to my clinic. I get treated with metronidazole for a week and symptoms go away. But this happens every single time my boyfriend and I have sex and it’s getting annoying. He went to get checked but they asked if he had any symptoms and said he didn’t so they cant give him medication.

Can men pass BV back to a woman?

I have recurring BV (bacterial vaginitis), I’ve been having this problem most of my adult life and it’s very frustrating.. I want to cry everytime i have it b/c it’s embarrassing, and it makes me feel less of a woman.. Anyways, i’ve been w/my boyfriend for over 1 yr, totally monogamous.. I, like always, keep getting BV.. I take the meds and it goes away, then we start having sex and i get it again.. This time it was within a week, sometimes it takes longer to get back.. but I’m wondering if he could carry the bacteria or something?? My Dr says no its only a woman thing, but I’ve heard different.. I don’t know what to think.. And if i tell him he needs to be treated I don’t want him to think I’m telling him he has something like an STD.. he will think I’m gross or something.. Ugh.. if anyone has any insight as to how to get rid of this forever i would love the info..

I have tried yogurt everyday, suppositories, supplements, changed my diet, never take baths only showers, cotton undies… I have good hygiene too I’m not dirty.. i just don’t know what to do.. I’m going to have a melt down soon if I don’t figure this out.. nothing keeps it away for good, it always returns..

Thanks

Vaginal discharge?

I have a question about vaginal discharge if anyone can answer for me. I’ve been having it ever since I’m about 14 years old, a short time after I have my period. Im now 31 and I am still having it, but don’t know the reason why. I had checked w/ my OBGYN to see if anything’s wrong w/ me, but they said everything is fine. The discharge comes everyday and it is really really bothersome. I had tried from chinese herbs to medicine from the OBGYBN (vaginal insertion), but I still be having it. If anyone can give me some suggestion or feedback on what I should do, I’ll be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

vaginal discharge?

vaginal discharge?
the discharge is sometimes a light greenish color. and sometimes it looks like cottage cheese. it has a foul smell. it comes and goes. and i’ve been experiencing this for some months now. i’ve postponed looking into this any earlier, because frankly i’m scared of going to a doctor. i have only had sexual intercourse with my boyfriend of 2 years, and he claims i was his first too. so could this be an std or maybe just an infection?? do i just need to shower more than once a day? are there any solutions or over the counter meds? please help. i’m totally terrified.
F#CK!!! so if it is gonorrhea, can i be cured? or is it long term? this also means he lied to me, doesn’t it?

I have been trying to find an organic feminine wash out there and haven’t found any yet. I found DivaWash and Faith in Nature Feminine Wash but nothing else.

I don’t want to use any more feminine washes with harmful chemicals anymore.

Can this cause vaginal bacterial infection?

I know it’s probably a stupid question but I’ve always thought that your vagina cleanses itself and flushes all the bad stuff out.

Anyways I was stuck at the beach all day with sand in my bikini bottom and I tried to get a lot of it out but beach bathrooms are so nasty and there’s no sinks. Can’t really wash yourself up, so now ever since then…I’ve been feeling irritation down there even though I’ve washed. It’s been like 4 days now.
