hi guys, im really really really hoping someone can help me.

i spoke to a doctor about my symptoms, white thick gloopy discharge but also can look yellow, i have no odor although once or twice it smelt like onions for a couple of days but has now gone, i have no itching, just the discharge. 

the doctor just said leave it a couple of weeks to see how it goes but ive had it for 3 weeks now but he wont give me anything or swab me! so im going to a GUM clinic tomorrow to get swabbed myself.

can anyone help pleasee

      Hi sammy

      good luck hun hope you feel better soon after treatment ..

      same happened to me at last pap smear, i had thrush and CV 

      ( Cytolytic Vaginosis) 

      i had 3 nights of Clindamycin vaginal ovules, followed by 3 nights of Laurimic ovules ( for thrush) 

      and repeated again one month latter as a precaution ..

       antibiotics can cause thrush so always good to take a treatment after any anyway

      good luck hun

      Hi 😊

      Well she gave me 1 clotrimazole 500mg vaginal tablet which I used 3 days ago, it dissolved and residue started coming out yesterday which is the norm. But the weird discharge is still there? Not sure if it's still going to work have no idea lol so tonight I've inserted bv active gel to balance ph levels as well.

      So annoying! Hope it gets sorted

      I'm glad it worked out for you 😃

      Sammy xx
