hi again

my bv is starting to resurface ....

so after day 5 of suppositories I'm at a cross roads I've had no bv smells until this morning I've took 5 nights worth of suppositories I've to take them for 7 nights .

I've been getting a bit of irritation after inserting them it now feels like I've thrush .

I can't get any thrush treatment till Monday.

I had some little thick white / slightly slightly yellow discharge and it had a slight smell to it .

so I think either these suppositories are to

my question is do I carry on with the 2 more nights suppositories remaining and wait for thrush treatment ?( if its thrush )

its probably bv back but I've really bad thrush symptoms so I'm just wondering if its thrush .

I do have a box or pro botic vaginal capsules

they are suppose to build a protective wall around the area and prevent thrush and bv do I take them in hope they might work for thrush ( if it is thrush )

I was going to originally start them after 7 days worth of suppositories but now I've smelt bv smells I dont know if the bv is back or its thrush .

I'm sorry if I've confused anyone .

appreciate any advice x

    Thank you Kimi I feel so sore its untrue .

    it's like having sex when your not moist and it kills for 24 hours after .

    it's hard to find any info on this but I managed to read up about it being sore and 3 out of the 4 posts or the different girls stopped they couldn't take the irritation the other continued .

    can I take a vaginal pro botic the same time

    because I'd be sticking 2 different things up the sore tunnel ?

    I'll take your advice but I'll hold taking the vaginal capsule - pro botic until someone can tell me because I dont know if I can take both in the tunnel together.

    oh the struggle ...horrible horrible so fed up with it .

    Thanks for the advice Kimi really appreciate it .

      Thanks for your replies I took your advice I took the 6th suppository last night and I was glad I listened to you because it didn't sting infact it was like I'd never put anything up my tunnel .

      I checked my smalls this morning and I could only smell a healthy clean smell .

      I'll see if it comes back when I finish the 7 days other wise I'll use one every day if I can get away with it and I do not become immune from them.

      thanks Kimi xx

      i used clotrimazole pessarys for yeast an iv had 5 days fluconizole back when i was on the metronidiazole its bad for causing yeast probably one of the worst antibiotics iv taken tbh with you and i dont think ill take it agai. even uf the bv came back it only took the symptoms away until i got my period then it was back again waste of time
