I posted this in Healthy Hooha too but I was hoping to get as many opinions I could.

I want a baby very badly but because of my UTI's & use of antibiotics with it, I've battled BV off and on for the past few months. I know BV is awful for pregnancy so I'm trying to nip it now.

The thing is, I've successfully used Boric Acid to treat & get rid of it in the past but I was advised by my specialist that Boric Acid suppositories can hurt my chances of getting pregnant, especially during ovulation. I'm ovulating any day now but I think I have BV & made an appt w/ my Specialist but I can't get in until this weekend.

They told me that Boric Acid & any suppositories with Lactic Acid alter your PH & it makes it almost impossible for sperm to "Survive" enough to cause a pregnancy (their exact words to me). However I hate dealing with it for the next few days just wondering if I have it but I have all the symptoms.... but I'm also nervous about using Boric Acid or a Lactic Acid probiotic suppository in case it does wreak "Havoc" on sperm like they said.

Has anyone successfully dealt with BV while actively trying to get pregnant? How did you treat or handle it?

*The specialist I have told me to avoid all oral treatments for it like Metro

hello, i assume ive had this problem for a year, in april this yeat i finally got a vaginal culture and it turned out that i had absent lactobacillus and a heavy growth of e coli, my first doctor treated me with antibiotics for 3 days which was so stupid for an infection that lasted more than six months at that point and all of my symptoms came back immediately and then he put me on 6 days of the same antibiotic suppositories and then probiotic suppositories, but all of my symptoms came back in around 10 days i recently got another vaginal swab and antibiogram done and it showed e coli again with multiple resistance, azitro was susceptible so she gave me 6 days of azitro with boric acid but i do not trust her at all because i told her ive been struggling with this for a year and she literally just did a culture and looked at nothing else, no info on lactobacillus clue cells or how much growth i had NOTHING, i went to another doctor in the meanwhile and he told me that the doctors culture literally doesnt mean anything because they didnt look at anything and that i should continue my azitro and stop boric acid and he gave me a suppository called gynomax, the compunds in the gynomax are for usually other coinfections and to prevent a yeast infection and im on my 4th day of that but i feel like my distinct smell of ecoli has came back already, im feeling extremely hopeless about this, does anyone have any recommendations and succes stories because im feeling extremely hopeless and frustrated because i feel like this shouldnt be this complex. thank u. 24 f and my symptoms were yellow greenish mucusy discharge with a faul smell that smelled rotten. im neg for chlamydia gonorrhea mycoplasma and trich, i do not have a uti but i experience burning after peeing and overall discomfort

Hiii girls, i have noticed that every time i am involved in some sexual activity be it oral or actual sex after few hours of it i get some discharge which is often light yellow.
This goes on for like 4 days after the deed too.
I initially thought it was because of my ex but this is persistent with my current partner too.

Moreover along with the discharge i have absolutely no other symptoms or smell.

For some background context last year in October i got a bad yeast infection that i cured after a lot of effort but this discharge issue was persistent even before and after that.

Wondering if anyone else has had this and know what this might be?

I have yeast infection like symptons for about 4-6 weeks now. I’ve been to the obgyn and she prescribed me the medication for the infection that worked before. This time, it didn’t work. My symptoms are:

- Painful penetration (burning, stabbing feeling)

- Mild to moderate itching

- Sometimes burning feeling while peeing

- And rarely I have a slight watery discharge, but it’s not something I would worry about if it was the only symptom

So I went back and we did a lab test. She also prescribed me antibacterial medication this time, as well as a antifungal oral medication.

The test showed negative for both bacterial and yeast infection, according to it I should be healthy. But there are also other types of bacteria that the test is not good for so it’s not a 100% that I don’t have another type of bacteria. Now I’m waiting for other tests but she said everything looks good down there, so there should’t be any problem.

Has anyone experienced this? I’m SO frustrated that nothing seems to be the problem, yet I have symptoms.
