Does anyone else get this problem?

Posted , 7 users are following.

hi I'm sorry I've made another discussion its nothing important I heard someone else had the same thing but I can't remember what thread it was on so I'm asking .

when your bv has cleared up or your bv might be present but yesterday I could just smell bv again ,I'm on day 4 of my period and I've had no issues with the smell until yesterday.

I think I'm imagining the smell but I did make a mistake the last few days I've used sensitive baby wipes to get the little blood clots out ( sorry ) so I could of been really smelt bv .

anyway I put a balance active pessary in just incase .

I didn't want to use boric acid because I dont think it's a good idea unless I'm absolutely desperate.

    It could have very well been the start of BV because as we blood changes the ph level. i would wait until after your period to start whatever regime you use to get rid of your bv.

    i highly doubt youd know if you had bv during your period since it changes our scents completely and discharge is hard to see. you need to screen yourself for a vaginal infection following your period before taking anything. i know this condition is terrible trust me i am taking meds as we speak for my 3rd recurrence since march but please remember that stress lowers the immune response and can wreak havoc on your body. it may or may not be BV! ive been doing hours upon hours of research and new breakthroughs for clinical trials are underway. also if you are in the Uk have you heard of nifrutel? im in the usa and its not approved but i read thats it super effective !!

    I have been dealing with this for 6 months and feel like I have exhausted all my options. My anxiety is the highest it has ever been. The smell has gone, however I know have excess discharge, burning and itching, as well as burning when urinating. Some days are just awful! I hope you can find relief ❤

    I'm probably being paranoid.

    I've purchased some screening tests but unfortunately they ain't helping because the color changer strip doesn't change color what so ever so I'll buy more with a better brand.

    I'm not even in a relationship and I can only imagine how you girls must be feeling I'm not dating due to mental health issues but also because of my bv it's a horrible Time right now for me and nothing I seems to be helping bv is something I can really really do without .

    least I've you lot this site has helped me get rid of bv I was smelling bv like the sewers it was unbelievable how bad my bv was but now it's in check alot more .

    keep fighting 😁

    after a while we should know our bodies especially our vaginas, ive learned alot about mine, i usually get it during or after my period our period do change our ph levels and the sperm also do the same, if you are having sex, and i do smoke so that can be a main trigger for me! but hey we gotta stick together and hopefully this will go away for good!
