Anyone have this type? Has anyone tried Clindesse cream? If so did it cause a yeast infection?

    Yes. It has worked for me. No yeast infection.  This cream is strong. Got into the nervous system to the brain.  It affected my mood.

    Joy I have the same strain. Does that cream have to be prescribed?

    You can get clindamycin on websites. If you are in the Uk the GP may prescribe.  As a rule, doctors prescribe flagyll first.  Clindamycin cream can affect people in different ways.  There are capsules as well.  I will double check on clindesse cream, that it is clindamycin.

    Clindesse is clindamycin.

      Hi it’s actually Nuvessa cream. Anyone tried that? Looks like it may be a flagyl type drug. This one is one time and not five nights.

    Joy are you going to try the cream? I just messaged my doctor to prescribe it to me. I’m on day two of the hydrogen peroxide. Yesterday I felt amazing, today I had yellow/brown discharge no smell. I’ve had some spotting that hasn’t stopped since I was taking the Boric Acid and I’ve still been having sexrolleyes. That could be why I’m bleeding. I’d like to know your progress.

      Hi I’m picking up the cream tonight. It’s a one dose thing. How are you doing the HP?  I’ve done solosec twice and it didn’t work. My main symptom is dryness or itchy feeling. No odor or much discharge. 

      Boric acid hurt me. I felt worse taking it. 

      I’m taking so many probiotics.

      Please let me know how it goes although it does sound like our BV is different. I don’t have any pain or itch. I tried Solosec once and it didn’t help at all! The HP I did yesterday and today but my discharge light yellow/bloody is getting worse! I just douched with acidophilus and tonight I’m going to the VH essentials vaginal suppositories they were cheap and have great reviews! I really hope the cream works for you! 

      Are you taking an probiotics?

      Hi Joy I was wondering how it went with the cream? I’m picking mine up today but I’m not sure what dosage it is or for how long I will be taking it.
