Hi everyone, i was placed on amoxicillin after my wisdom teeth surgery and during the course of antibiotics i came down with my first and worst ever yeast infection over a month ago . My vulva was so swollen itchy and it was the worst experience of my life. I took one dose of the fluconazole and my symptoms subsided and then some discharge returned and i took an extra one dose they gave me a week later but im still having abnormal discharge and smell. Now it’s been three weeks and i still just get a smell and discharge that varies in color sometimes its just white tinted with yellow, nothing itches which is why i think it’s BV not a YI. i’m going back to my OB tomorrow to request the full course of metronidazole and hopefully that will work. After i get out the shower everything seems normal, but when i wake up there is a fishy smell that comes from my vulva area along with these skinlike particles that have an odor and i have no clue what it is. I’ve tried the boric suppositories for a few days and that somewhat cleared the smell, i’m taking oil of oregano and just started goldenseal root along with probiotics. Can anyone recommend what they’ve done if they’ve been affected horribly by antibiotics like me from?
