Metro for BV.. is this discharge normal? pic included

Posted , 5 users are following.

Hey so I started taking metro pills on 9/12 and now I'm having increased white discharge. The smell of the bv has kind of gone away by now but it's still there a little bit but this discharge is driving me crazy. Has anyone else experienced this and does it go away? image

      what didnt work for me does not mean it wont work for you alot of people use the tablets and it clears it up but it is very common to get a yeast infection after taking them if u have any probiotics take them a couple of days before u finish the corse

      kim12266 Did your BV or PID return after clindamycin treatment? I had my PID and BV treated with ceftriaxone, doxy and metro, but BV came back. I want to ask my doctor to swap metro with clindamycin maybe my BV is too resistant to metro. Strange enough during my first round of treatment when I took only 7 days of metro, pain came back immediately. Second round I did 14 days and symptoms resided for months. Now it's back. I feel so tired and disillusioned, especially since I went through laparo, removed my appendix and got DNA chlamydia and gono tested from uterus and they were negative. I just want the pain to go away. We want a child but this has affected my endometrium. It looked good on histero but when PID comes, my menstruation gets so light, just 2 days of lite flow. Can't get it ticker than 6mm.

    My discharge looks exactly like this, I have BV right now, metro pills usually make it worse for me.
