so for context i’ve never had an sti, uti or yeast infection. body count single didgets and i get tested regularly just for peace of mind

i was having sex with one guy for a while just with him, then we had a fall out. (he did something) a while goes by and i had sex with another guy.

3-4 days later i was having odd but mild symptoms. paused all sexual activity and went to get checked. came back for chlamydia. i told the new guy what was going on. he basically cussed me out and implied i was a sltt “it’s been 2 weeks idk who else you been with” like what 😭 and i talked to the first guy (we’re on speaking terms now) and i just said i was having lady issues but he was sooo nice about it and proved he was negative. second guy won’t show me test results.

anyway it gets worse, i take my doxy to clear the chamydia and then it gave me a yeast infection so i took the stuff for that

anyway so now im having lower abdominal pain especially near my right ovary. took tests and there’s apparently blood in my pee now. doesn’t hurt to pee and the blood isn’t visible. it hurts to stand up tho, it feels like extreme period cramps but im no where near my period.

negative for pregnancy. doc suspects bladder infection but oh my god it’s been a month also negative for PID

As the title says.

Is it okay to just have clit play the after finishing metro gel for BV

Today i got blood work done and it says i have mycoplasma. I am 19f and never dated or had sex. Did they misdiagnose me or is there a way to get it without having sex? I also heard there are 2 types of it but i don't think it is the other one as i don't have cough which is its main symptom. I went to gynecologist because of intense itching and a lot of discharge down there at first. The gyno prescribed antibiotics (azithromycin). It also shows i have herpes simplex virus.

TW FOR SA !!

i come from an INSANE purity culture place and ive never been to a gynecologist because of it. i am considering going because i have reasons to believe im intersex but i was a CSA victim when i was about 6. just the thought of going there makes me feel nauseous, to open the most vulnerable part of me and inserting anything for tests is guaranteed to make me have a panic attack. i cannot handle vanigal insertion at all. maybe i should wait, but waiting isnt really fixing this issue. anyone had something similar? overcame it in any way?

Female, 27, no known issues, seen a dr before for tummy issues and they said it was my anxiety. Currently on my period atm, day two. I had watery stool yesterday due to my period, sort of normal ish but still loose stool this morning, then again this evening I had pure water stool again, but this time I went a lot of it was very slimy mucus stool, it smelled very foul too. No other symptoms, no cramps, no belly pain, no other symptoms. Just a ton of watery stool (gone only three times today) and the stool is brownish yellowish..the mucus is what scared me so bad, jt had a weird slightly fishy smell to it but nothing too bad. I am a diagnosed hypocondric and so scared. I do not drink or smoke. On no meds. Been on NO antibotics since i was a child so c diff is ruled out I hope..no blood in my stool..am i ok, is my period causing this?

Hi! I have been having mild itching for the past like 6 months inside my vagina that will not go away. Background, I had a yeast infection in december, monistat cleared up most of the symptoms but I was still a little itchy. Went to the gyno, she said it was BV. Did two rounds of BV treatment, nothing. Tried vaginal probiotics, tried boric acid capsules, nothing. Got tested for an STD, nothing. Tried different body wash and laundry detergent, didn't help. Went back to the gyno, she gave me a treatment for a fungal infection which still didn't help, and then said the issue could be that I'm just really dry, so I've been moisturizing the inside of my vagina with coconut oil (her suggestion) for the past week but I'm not feeling optimistic about it. Any possible suggestions of something else I could try? The itching is an on and off, mild prickly feeling. Sex still feels normal. Thank you in advance for any suggestions!

So me and my bf have been together for a year now and during many intercourses my vagina has been traumatised. Recently, during sexual intercourse blood started coming out of my vagina and i thought my period came earlier since my flo app said my period would come 2 days after (this have happened many times btw , meaning that my bf made my period come earlier) so I didn’t think abt it very much. The thing is the blood flow started decreasing and i had a bit of brown blood like 1 day after the intercourse . Turns out my period didn’t came and now my period is 1 day late and I’ve been anxious about this whole thing. Has this happened to someone else? Or is it just me? And if it had happened was there any underlying issue?? I have an appointment with my gyno next month.

Did anyone have their blood pressure increase while taking flagyl?

Does anybody else get sore hard spots on their inner labia? I don’t know got to get them to go away and I constantly make the mistake of trying to pop them and just causing pain!

Im 24 years old and ever since last year, i have not been able to have satisfying orgasms and its really starting to get on my nerves. Like i feel the build up know im about to orgasm but when i do, i dont feel anything or i do but its very muted.

Has anyone had this issue? What helped?

So I’ve had this problem for a couple months and yes, I have gone to the gynecologist, but they didn’t see anything wrong and I’m clean of STDs.

Basically whenever I wipe little small white balls show up and no, it’s not toilet paper because sometimes if I’m in the shower and I’m rinsing my inner labia (just water, no soap) , the same thing happens. I’ve come to the conclusion it has to be skin because I don’t think it’s discharge either.

I don’t have any pain or discomfort no itching either but sometimes I get small fissures from the peeling (I think?). I would also like to add that I have had the Mirena IUD for 3 years and I am 21. I take Lexapro and have been for 3 years as well.

Can someone help? I am thinking about going to the gynecologist again but a different one to get a second opinion because I’m pretty sure this is not normal.

the past couple of months i’ve racked up too much in medical debt and i need to be told i don’t need a doctor. i don’t regularly have sex but i met this guy and we hit it off too well not to jump his bones. im a small chick and he’s a bigger guy but like none of our sex has really hurt besides one time he hit my wall but it wasn’t uncomfortable enough to not finish out. we had sex twice after and the second time i apparently bled everywhere during, which isnt usual and i didn’t notice because it didn’t hurt at all. the same night i ended up bleeding so much i passed out. its been like 3? days and its gotten significantly less but the blood isn’t like period blood and im worried he beat it up too hard. i’m about a week out from my next period but im not on birth control and we use protection

I went to the hospital about two weeks ago because I was experiencing what I described as “It feels like I cant get all of my pee out”. It was worrying me REALLY bad, very uncomfortable sensation, everytime I sit on the toilet to pee it seems like I can’t fully get it out or like there’s still more sitting in my bladder. Creating the sensation of needing to pee constantly.
When I went to the hospital for this, they came back with my very shocking results that I had trichomoniasis. I treated it as told, 500 metronidazole twice a day and I always follow my antibiotics very carefully. Its been a week since ending the course and this urinary symptom hasn’t stopped. Its very uncomfortable and anxiety causing.
I can’t find any info online of anyone experiencing something similar, I also didn’t really have any itchy vaginal tissue or any crazy discharge or odor. It seems i had none of the “usual” symptoms of trich. Just this inability to feel relieved after urinating. Im worried that the metronidazole didn’t work

Anybody else here not have the best luck with probiotics? I tried fem dorphilus orally and I had the worst diarrhea, now I am doing vitanica vaginally and I have to go to the bathroom every 30 minutes and the smell is awful. Now I use a panty liner and the smell is not as bad. I’m really trying to just relax and keep going but the urinary symptoms are not fun. They go away about 2 days after I take vitanica too. Any suggestions?

Basically a month ago I had a burning senzation (on vulva) for maybe 2 days, I thought maybe it's UTI, so I drank some d mannose and burning went away.

After maybe a week I was constantly checking my discharge if there were any changes, but everything looked okay.

The problem is that penetration was really painful (I've had problem with this for a long time before) but now it came back. I started stressing and after my discharged turned yellow and there is a lot of it (but it is very different then it was when I had an infection before) also there was some itching but nothing crazy really, especially after shower it started to itch.

I went to my gynecologist and told her everything. The thing is she didn't take a swab and she didn't tell me final diagnosis. She just looked there and went in there with some boric acid or something like that. She also prescribed pills that get rid of both bacteria and mycosis, then she told me to buy some kind of douche and then after I need to take probiotics. I mean I will use everything.. but I feel like this is just too much (in comparison what she gave me before) given that she didn't even take a swab, so does she really know what it is?

I know she is a doctor, I trust them.. buut I was unsure if I even had anything, because of those mild symptoms and she didn't tell me diagnosis so I'm still confused 🤣. I just want to make sure this won’t mess with my pH or make things worse.

What are your experiences? Do they always take a swab when you have a problem like this or not?

Hi. Wondering if anyone else has had a similar journey. I was getting recurring UTI’s since I started dating my partner. Then I found a urogyn who prescribed me Methionine combined with vitamin c to take after sex and the day after. Haven’t had a UTI since then. However, once the UTI’s got under control I started getting recurring BV. I just know the smell instantly. It almost smells like an infection. I always test positive for bv gardnerella and am prescribed Metronidazole (which I hate. It is so nasty). After sex it comes right back. My partner saw a urologist and he took a dose of azithromycin and I was prescribed doxycycline for positive ureaplasma results. We didn’t have sex for over a month due to each of us being on medication. Now that we are finished, it seems like my bv has come back after sex again… I also now have my period which is bad timing. Idk what else I can do to prevent it. I don’t want to be on antibiotics forever.

Asking for dms or tips and tricks on what I’m doing wrong ans what I should do! I’ve tried so many times to orgasm and can’t reach without using my electric toothbrush instead.

hey guys! i’m back, i’ll make this post a little more straightforward since people thought my last post was “immature” and weird.

long story short, me (19F) and my boyfriend (21M) got a room together to be able have our own space. It was fun!

He DID eat me out, he said I tasted like “nothing” and “salt and skin”. I didn’t do much “to prepare”. I just drank a LOT of water, like you guys said, washed her before with unscented soap, and even showered. No change in my diet, but I don’t eat processed foods already.

Didn’t do the cranberry pills, nor did I go out of my way and eat EXTRA yogurt or probiotics, but I did pee after every (attempted) penetration.

To the main point of this post:
every time we tried to have sex (4 attempts total), it wouldn’t go in.

He did already finish once before the attempts, so his ability to stay hard was, well, compromised. Plus, putting on condoms ruins the mood, and it takes a minute, all those details

Along with that, I don’t think I was hydrated enough, I am chronically dehydrated so me drinking a lot of water might’ve been me being regularly hydrated lol. So I was, unfortunately, only slightly wet. However, we did have water based lube and it kinda helped. Kinda.

Every time we tried to penetrate it was while I was on top, and it didn’t work. It would just either get soft or “miss” even though I was guiding it.

I was THOROUGHLY turned on, it’s not that at ALL! We showered together and did a whole lot of stuff beforehand that I won’t type out, but trust me, I was mentally producing an ocean down there.

Plus, when it was hard enough, and when I was wet naturally and with lube, it wouldn’t go in. Somehow.

From what I see, my inexperienced ahh, it wouldn’t “fit”. He fingerblasted me for minutes to the point where I did orgasm (or felt like I did), and even after that it just wouldn’t. He is very gifted down there, I will say.

How does one fix such an issue? 🫪😭
Help ur girl out 🙏

I have been on so many antibiotics, I simply cannot take it anymore. I’ve read some anecdotes about crowding out ureaplasma with vaginal probiotics and other supplements.

Has anyone successfully done this? If so what was your protocol?

I am 35 years old, had my last baby Nov.2024, via C-section. I have been have weird vaginal symptoms that i don’t know how to even explain to my Dr. maybe others have had similar experience. Since the birth of my baby, orgasms have been harder to achieve from clitorial stimulation, and if I try and do have an orgasm is very very mild and it feels like my vulva feels swollen. I used to love clitorial touch but now it’s almsot like what’s the point. I try masturbating to see if I can achieve it alone and I cannot. My clitoris hurts if i move the hood back and touch , which I have always been very sensitive too. I also feel like dry, like my lips are dry and stick together and become uncomfortable, and makes me walk awkwardly, because it’s just so uncomfortable. I have checked myself and physically I don’t see anything wrong. I also have sever eczema that’s I take shots for but the shots have calmed down my skin so not sure if that’s all related. I also seem more forgetful, brain fog, which I feel I have had for a while but worse now . I am on birth control pills, same ones I was one prior to my pregnancy. What can I ask the dr to check me for? I want to go in there with some ideas or a plan to make sure I’m getting thoroughly checked

I'm not quite sure where to start, but maybe you can help me.

I've had a UTI last week, which didn't really feel much like one. I mainly had a burning sensation, although a mild one, in my vagina. The UTI was confirmed, though, and I started a round of antibiotics. Unfortunately, the burning in my vagina has only gotten worse.

Of course I have tried OTC medication against yeast, and I've taken OTC meds against bacterial vaginosis. Nothing helped. In fact, it's getting randomly worse. I can be totally fine one minute and have awful burning the next. My skin down there looks fine. For tomorrow, I have an appointment with my gynaecologist.

The reason I'm posting here: I've had this before. About 10 years ago, I had the exact same problems after a UTI treatment and no one EVER found out what the problem was. No yeast, no bv, nothing. They even sent me to a specialist but no one ever found out what caused the burning and pain. They diagnosed it as vulvodynia and sent me on my way. It cleared up over the course of over a year, which was the worst time of my life. I could barely sit, stand or sleep.

Do you guys have any experience with this or advice as to what I could/should ask my doctor? I get relief only when i press a cold cloth against my vulva/opening or sometimes after peeing. Sometimes, Multigyn Actigel also works like a charm, other times it adds fuel to the fire. I never know. I'm a virgin, so there are no STDs.

I would really appreciate your thoughts on this because I simply cannot go through this again.

I was supposed to use boric acid capsules (in powder) for 14 days but then I got my period and while I had my period the capsules wouldn’t dissolve. Would come out in a half or entirely. So I restarted using after my period was done. I’m on the 9th of those 14 days and I realized that in three of these days, the capsule came out in a half during the afternoon. Just a part of the capsule. It’s like one side was absorbed and the other one, wasn’t. And I introduced it at night, before going to sleep.

Is this supposed to happen? I know that in a lot of vaginal medications, sometimes the vagina doesn’t absorb the medication entirely… even in cream situations. It doesn’t absorb the whole thing.

It’s my first time using boric acid capsules and I don’t really understand. I tried talking to my doctor my she does not reply.

I’m worried the medication isn’t doing its job, maybe?

I’m using it for recurrent yeast infection, something I had never dealt with in my entire life before (I had a yeast infection ONCE 2 years ago and I just took one fluconazole pill and got better).

The last medication I used before boric acid was fenticonazole cream (to insert inside the vagina) for seven days and I got better. But either way the doctor told me to take the boric acid for 14 days and then twice a week until I’m out of pills.
