 3  Bv Honestly this medicine is not fun. Day one gave me white clumpy discharge. Day 2-3 my discharge became pink and clumpy which made me call my doctor and she said it's common but then the discharge became red and thick, almost like when I'm on my period but worse. Extreme fatigue kicked in as well as headaches. After day 5 I've decided to not take the medication anymore because of how I'm feeling. F 25 5 days

 4  BV Prescribed the gel to clear up bv. Gel did great clearing infection, however the white clumpy discharge after usage is extremely irritating. It's been 4 days since I've ended treatment and im still having the discharge. I've also had two dosages of diflucan, because my doctor assumes a yeast infection has occurred, but still no help. When will the discharge end? F 26 14 days

 4  BV I took it for 5 days, Sunday the 9th of Aug 2020 was my last dose. I had no foul sleep to begin with no symptoms really but doc find it during routine pap. It worked though coz I did have extremely minor itching and after first day poof it was gone! However........ However, I decided to enjoy some intimate time with my boyfriend and WOWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!! The clump situation though!!!!!!! Omg, I thought I was broken or something. Thank God he is understanding and was like it's ok baby, let's continue our fun . Then yesterday I tried again thinking he probably cleaned me out, NOPE!! IT WAS DRIPPING OUT AT THIS POINT, so I had a towel on stand by, still did our thing. Listen, if rather feel nauseated, tired, get a headache, or whatever than this. I know it's life but umm, nah boo boo, I love my intimate time. And this is my first time ever getting BV. The annoyance of it all LMAO!! But at least we got meds to fix it F 36 5 days

 3  BV So I went in for my annual, and to also get my IUD out. So I get an email from the pharmacy saying I had metrogel, and a yeast infection pill to pick up. NO CALL FROM DR! The first dose made me cramp and very uncomfortable in my vagina. Almost like more irritation. I woke up the next morning with pink hamburger meat like clumps coming out. So that was very alarming but since my dr didnt call me with my results I felt like I couldnt call to ask. After my second dose, the clumps are coming out bigger and more often. Its really gross and scary. Literally looks like mushy half cooked pink hamburger meat. No smell. And thats the only discharge I have if thats what you would call it. Ive been googling for 2 days and came across this forum which is the only place Ive seen similar things to what I have going on. I do think I feel better after the second dose but this tissue Im passing is starting to concern me. Ive taken the Bv 7 day pills before, never the gel and Ive never had this happen before. If there was blood I would think its a miscarriage is how horrifying it looks. F 21 5 days

 5  Bv White spongy balls, also has what looks like reddish brown discharge combination. Odor gone since the first tubal application. Yes, I'm bloated in my abdomen, can even get a little nauseous, but it works a heck of alot better than the metronidazole pill. The pill works, but that taste it leaves even when meds are completed..yuck...also the pills make me very nauseous. I love that it's clear and 5 days. F 43 5 days

 5  BV Gas, minor bloating, fatigue, cottage cheese-like discharge (days 2-5, and a few days after completion) no odor associated with discharge I have taken oral antibiotic for BV before, this did not seem to have nearly as large of an impact on daily life as oral antibiotic. While vaginal insertion of gel was"inconvenient", the gel itself was less invasive than yeast treatment (cream) and seemed to stay put better than the antifungal cream. 5 days is also much better than the 7 or 10 day oral antibiotic treatments I've had. Will take again. Also considering the idea of using for prevention on the 2x a week scheme my midwife mentioned. F 27 5 days
