Vagina bubble feeling, symptom of B.V?
Posted , 58 users are following.
I had my son 9 months ago, I had a second degree tear and stitches, I was fine at first I then had sexual intercourse 5 weeks post baby and then showered (including my vagina, which I know can change the PH balance, leading to B.V) and that’s when I began to feel what could only be described as the feeling of bubbles in my vagina.
I also have a lot more discharge, which can be watery but also clumpy. I went to the doctors numerous times and was tested for Thrush, Cystitis, Bacterial Vaginosis, STDs etc and they all came out negative (although I was given and took medication for Cystitis and Bacterial Vaginosis, before the results came back) I think in the end the doctor got fed up with me and told me it was normal post baby.
I can’t see how this can be normal as it is really uncomfortable to live with and can really get me down. The excess discharge also makes my vagina sore.
The bubble feeling tends to get worse when I urinate and just before my period is due and I sometimes bleed a little after sex (not sure if this is related)
I thought it might be Bacterial Vaginosis, thats how I got the medication for it, but the swabs came back negative twice (although I have read it can be difficult to diagnose and treat) so I'm still not sure if it is. Either way I am desperate to get rid of this bubble feeling, and any doctors I have seen, do not seem to know what I am talking about, so if anybody else has experienced this bubble feeling, it would be great to hear from you.

i have suffered with this for many years. One gyne doc told me that the air is from cells that are dying off naturally in the vagina. She said that when the cell dies it give off this bit of air. Who knows! I know that for me it is always associated with a flare up in my IBS? I think I have systemic yeast infection.

I had a question. Did you by chance feel any bubbling sensation after peeing or a few days before your period?
Just wondering!

I have the bubble feeling that I believe passes through my urethra. Potentially my vagina. It is more noticable after I pee or if I am gassy. Somedays I don't notice it and other days it happens much more. A lot of the research I have done says it could be a fistula but since I haven't had children or surgeries, radiation, etc. it seems unlikely. The right side of my vagina sometimes can feel sore as well. Only the right side. I also sometimes have watery discharge, other days it is clumpy white/yellow. And I also randomly can bleed between my periods. I can be light pink, red or brown.
I also had Bacterial Vaginosis before I noticed this to start happening. I believe after my BV was cleared up the bubble feeling started happening about 2-3 months later.
I have had these symptoms for longer than I would like to admit. All STI tests come back negative. I am afraif to keep pushing the doctor to take me seriouslly but I am getting desperate at this point. Any help is greatly appreciate.
Thank you, thank you!
