    No, endo doesn't cause those issues, all women can get them. You need to talk to your ob/gyn about both of these. Some people find it helpful for yeast infections to cut out or waaay down on sugars, which include all the white starchy foods such as bread, rice and potatoes.

    Have you been checked for chlamydia? It requires different treatment from yeast infections. It also requires better wiping and sex hygiene. (Been there, had that, lol)

      I get tested for HIV, Culture and sensitivity test and Pap smear and it all came back negative except for pap smear I have bv that time but it is all cured. My only concern is my underwear is always wet from discharges. Sometimes it is clear white sometimes it is milky white but it doesn't turn to thick cottage like. It is irritating because there is too much watery discharges coming out on me.

      I don't eat sugars now because of my endo to avoid flare up and my blood sugar is normal. I do wipe a lot and change underwear 3 times a day.(lol) I can't sex because of my endo so I don't think I have std.

      I experienced that before. It will even leak on the floor if I'm in bathroom. Sometimes I'll even thought it's my period cos it's a lot but eventually it stop. Give it some time

      That is true. Me too. I thought I have my period but isn't and my underwear is wet. Ever since I was diagnosed with endo I suffered from discharges. It is heavy when I am ovulating. How many months or weeks does your discharge stop?

      yes I have severe abdominal pain. Last year I had major surgery not lap because my right ovary ruptured and it is 8cm and my left ovary now has 5cm cyst. I am on hormonal pills to lessen the pain and trying if my cyst shrink because I don't have a baby as of now.

      Everyday. It gets worse when I have mens and ovulating. I am taking Visanne now. After 3 months I will have trans vaginal if the cyst shrink we will try to conceive.

      Thanks. There is no side effects on me. I don't know if it is working. Why cold drinks?

      My gynae told me 3 months is all it takes to kn if Visanne works. Oh the cold drinks thing.. 😃 it's actually an Asian traditional health practice. The Chinese sinseh (Dr) would advise against it as cold drinks continue to stomach pain or women's health (period-clumpy blood, menses cramp, etc.)
