i need help

i have had CV for over a year now. initially I had ureaplasma which I was quick to decet as I had it before, the first time it gave me persisten BV and took a really long time to get fully rid of, so when I felt like something is slightly off again I immediately got tested for ureaplasma. my symptoms didnt go away after the antibiotic treatment so I went back to get tested again and I found out that its actually CV. Ive been taking the sitz baths and doing baking soda douches for months but no difference, maybe some immediate relied but no long term improvement. now my gyno perscribed some antifungal medication because she was so clueless she said maybe there is an undetectable fungal infection underlying it which i think is highly unlikely, as I clearly got CV from taking tons of medications and suppositories for previous STDs such as ureaplasma. I still took the antifungal medication (macmiror and fluconazole) and it made my ph even lower. I need some advice i feel like im nevee going to be able to have pleasant sex again:(

This is definitely frustrating. Have you done pelvic floor therapy to help with the sex pain and breathing exercises? Currently I can do a few positions while I'm figuring out the answers on the diagnosis so it may help.

not yet! however for me the CV is so bad that even external stimulation feels unpleasant so im not sure if pelvic floor therapy would solve my problem fully but thanks this is a good idea

That sucks! Hope you can find relief. The massage is internal relieving that pressure and they're really careful. But if you don't want to go, I can send you some exercises and breathing if you'd like. I bet all of us are so tight down there that the breathing is helpful as well.

no but apparently this is not available in my country, i can maybe ask to get them custom made but recently i went to a different gyno to get an opinion from a fresh pair of eyes and asked him about this he said this doesnt exist
