    I completely hear you! I'm 37 years old, and I've been dealing with this for six months. I have been through four or five treatments with the typical treatment....Which was the MetroGel.

    I have douched, I have tried home remedies that I read online, and I have tried many other things. Nothing help! I was starting to feel hopeless… I'm married, and it has made me feel terrible! I don't even want to have sex with my husband…

    Finally I saw a new gynecologist… And she prescribed me a different antibiotic cream. The name of it was clindamycin phosphate vaginal cream.

    This finally worked! Please ask your doctor... I hope you can get back to normal as I did!

      How long was the treatment for? I don't think I've tried that one. How long did it take for you to work?

      Hi Sherri are you in the US? Just wondering if I can get that cream in the states. Also, how long have you been symptom-free?
