| 5 | bv | Loved it, the odor was gone by the next morning. Other than the discharge taking up to a week to leave, that would be my only draw back to it | F | 45 | 5 times | 2/3/2015 | 3 | coz of yeast infection | losing appetite,feel in dizzy | its so. helpful | F | 26 | 5 days 50mg | 2/2/2015 | 3 | I have bv | Im not sure if its a side effect but im experiencing clumpy cottage cheese like discharge not buring or itching any ideas on what I should do for this please inform on whats best for this problem | F | 26 | 5 days | 1/25/2015 | 2 | Bv | Clumpy toilet paper discharge. Worst in mid morning. | I have had Bv several time this past year which is something new. I am so frustrated because I am unsure of how long I will have to live with this. I have tried everything in the book. I just want this do go away. This is day four of medication. I was proscribed both gel and pill. I am so over the gel I sto to see if the discharge would go away while continuing the pill. I am going crazy. | F | 23 | 1 days | 1/5/2015 | 4 | recurring bv | Clumpy cottage cheese like, dry mucusy white/or brownish. With the 1st treatment a little burning. With relief from odor, burning and itching on the 2 ND day. | My bv is recurring and I've been to the doctor for my bv as many times as 3 times a month. My doctor finally gave me orders for the 5 day treatment and then once a week for 15 weeks. She also me to but RepHresh Pro-B ( a feminine probiotic supplement). I started taking it before I started the metrogel and after 2 days of taking at I started feeling much better. I noticed a calming in the older and the itching stopped. She told me to keep taking that even after the treatments then that should help stop the recurring bv. The bv typically comes back within a week of finishing the treatment so I'm keeping my fingers crossed and hoping that this works. The Clumpy discharge has always been normal for me and I've never tested positive for yeast infection after treatment. | F | 43 | 2 days 0.75% | 12/17/2014 | 5 | bv | Miganes... bloated.... dry mouth... diearria | I get bv over and over again and I don't know y. My doctor always put me on this gel and I love it but I hate the fishy smell discharge.then my doctor never told me not to have sex while taking the gel so that might be y it comes bk. Then I get that thick white discharge. I heard after taking the gel u should clean urself out with water..is that true?? It has helped me with the odor going away but it ends up coming bk What am I doing wrong?? My friend told me she gets bv so much that she take a daily bv pill she got frm the drug store. It's normal and it keeps her leveled out....I havnt tryed that yet cause I need advise frm another woman. | F | 27 | 5 days 0.75 | 12/7/2014 | 2 | BV | I always have yeast infection. all the time. I moved and came in the USA so a doctor because it was itching and burning. Result... yeast infection NO WAY. Treatment for one week. One week later I saw ne again. No symptoms anymore but he told me this time BV... Ok... metronidazole 0.75% for 5 days. Terrible side effects, stomach pain, constipation/diarrhea at the same time and TERRIBLE CREEPY NASTY DESGUSTING discharge. i had my period and after the first dose I got the nasty brown and really dry discharge. It looked like cooked beef. I can tell you I freaked out. I show my husband and he was like BRRRRRR. Anyway, I went to see my gyneco again and he told me... BV still there it s not gone. keep on doing this for 5 more days... So I started again. White dry thick discharge that I wont see on the toilet paper but that I have to take off by myself because if I don't empty my vagina it stays!! One month without sex with my husband... I am getting depressed. | F | 26 | 10 days 0.75% 1X day | 12/3/2014 | 4 | BV | white, thick gel like discharge after day 3 | to get rid of the discharge try using a reusable douche that you can fill yourself of just plain water, if you are not pregnant. you won't believe how much of that white spongy discharge stuff comes out - i understand now why it's taking some people so long for it to stop. yuck! | F | 41 | 5 days .75 1X day | 11/20/2014 | 5 | BV | I've had headaches, fatigue and dry mouth. The clumpy white rubbery cottage cheese like discharge should be duly noted in the insert as a known side effect to ease many of the women whom experience this, their fears and/or worries. | This prescription of Metronidazole Vaginal Gel 0.75% is great and it works well with me. I've had maybe 4 BV's in the past year and I often wondered if your sexually active with your mate should he be treated as well. If your being treated and he's not then he's only giving you back what you've just rid yourself of. In addition, I've been trying to educate myself a little more on this condition (BV) that we as women must be sure our Vaginal PH levels are normal. When it's not this is a reason why we have repeated cycles of BV. What I started taking to help balance my vaginal ph levels is Women's Probiotic. It helps promote healthy yeast balance and support vaginal flora balancing and urinary health. It also helps replenish good bacteria.. The product is called "ULTIMATE FLORA -RTS" WOMEN'S PROBIOTIC 15 Billion, 8 Probiotic Strains 3o Capsules...Just for your FYI. Good Luck Ladies!!! METROGEL-VAGINAL is a wonder drug. Rids you of the Foul Smelling Fish Like Odor which is very embarrassing within 1-2 days of using this prescription drug. | F | 48 | 5 days | 11/2/2014 | 4 | vaginal infection | I had problems sleeping at night. Clumpy cottage like discharge and sometimes became dizzy. | I have been suffering from a recurring infection. I have taken the pill form twice and the symptoms didn't go away so my doctor finally prescribed gel form. I no longer have the horrible smell but as far the clumpy discharge I still see the mix of this green discharge so I really hope its working this time. I'm 34 weeks pregnancy and its really stressed me out the entire pregnancy. | F | 21 | 7 days 70mg | 11/1/2014 | 5 | BV | Worked great. First time I ever needed to use it and I'm glad it worked.first day off of the meds and I I got my period. I was worried at first since it was thick and clumpy but I see that's a side affect and not a YI . | F | 42 | 5 days 1 | 10/1/2014 | 5 | bv | none other than heavy discharge AFTER the treatment | I was fine the five days taking the RX...but two days after treatment, I started getting the chunky white discharge. I panicked! I called my doctor and she informed me it was "bacteria die off" and the medicine doing its job... NOT a yeast infection. I feel that this very common concern should clearly be addressed with the information given with the medicine. Also doctors should advise that this will or could happen...it would save them time by not having to take calls and explain it. Shame on all for not let us know and sparing us the worry and stress. | F | 63 | 5 days 5gr 1X day | 9/23/2014 | 2 | BV infection | Started my period on third day of Metro Gel. Period was gross. Had dark brown flakes towards end of period. I was also on antibiotics for a rash which gave me a YI. Now I am three days out from last dose and have had two days of severe abdominal cramps, lower back pain shooting into my legs. Brown, pink and spotted fleshy discharge when I use toilet and also on panties. Its awful | F | 34 | 7 days | 9/22/2014 | 4 | BV | thanks goodness this is normal. i obviously knew the gel constistancy exiting my body was the medicine coming out, but i see the ricotta cheese/toilet paper/spongy white stuff too. i didn't know if that was leftoever gel, or the gel pushing stuff out. i feel like doctors should have warned us all as they prescribe us this. im a day or two past my last dose and i'm still having the gel discharge along with the white stuff. how much is possibly up there?? someone commented on here and said it would take 3 days after your last dose to clear up. let's hope that's the case. however, aside from this, i think i feel better. there is no smell at all! :) | F | 25 | 5 days 1X day | 9/18/2014 | 4 | BV | I've never had BV before but after noticing a fish like smell x2 days post sex I knew exactly what it was. I called my gyn and requested the gel. The gel started working immediately and the smell was gone after the first dose. The thick, wet toilet paper like discharge started day two and caught me way off guard. Really glad I found this site to see it's normal (would have been nice if my Dr knew that and had told me). It has lasted 3 days after the treatment, but has decreased a lot. This sounds gross, but if your boyfriend can stomach it- we wore a condom and had sex and it surprisingly "cleaned out my pipes". The following day I had a scant amount of discharge left and took another dose "just in case". By far not the greatest medical advice, but it worked for us. Good luck! Being a girl is rough sometimes! | F | 23 | 5 days 5 day gel | 9/12/2014 | 3 | BV | Headache, extreme fatigue, nausea, dehydration, insomnia, discharge. | F | 24 | 5 days | 9/10/2014 | 5 | Metrogel-vaginal | The positive was that I got a very soothing feeling vaginally during the entire time I took the gel except for the 6th day. Then I started to experience burning. I got so sick on Metro Gel cream I wasn't sure I could go the full 10 days, so didn't. I also didn't fill the applicator to the top. I knew I couldn't tolerate that much medication.I felt nausea the entire time. Headache. Horrible stomach cramps. Dizzy. I only stayed with it because it really works. I have the white gross clumps of discharge that sure look like yeast. I would have started to take Diflucan, but haven't after reading all the wonderful posts on here. I am seeing my doctor on Monday to get cultures done to make sure the BV is gone, and this isn't yeast. I dread taking it again because of the side effects. I literally had to stay home, but the relief immediately from the smell and itch is well worth it if you can stand the side effects. I couldn't tolerate the pill so glad this is available. Less of both evils | F | 61 | 6 days 1X day | 9/5/2014 | 3 | BV | No side effects, except the thick, white clumpy discharge after the 2nd day. I been off the gel for a week now and i am still seeing the discharge. Was going to call my doctor but i want to wait it out and see if it goes away on it's own. Hopefully it'll go away soon. | F | 19 | 5 days | 8/29/2014 | 4 | bv infection | White thick discharge | F | 46 | 5 days .75% | 8/17/2014 | 3 | Bacterial vaginosis | I mean it seems to work and no more odor wich is a really good thing. But a lot of white cottage cheese looking discharge since like day two I've now Ben done with my 5 day treatment for 2 days now and it's still here. I was reading the reviews about this seems like everyone has this side effect but haven't found an answer bout what it is exactly some think a yeast infection I don't know wish someone knew or how long it will last | F | 20 | 5 days | 8/12/2014 |
