 4  BV Lower abdomen cramping (not severe-but like a dull ache) and on the second day I noticed a brownish red like blood discharge. It really worried me until I noticed on this forum that it seems to be normal. I guess that means it's working? F 35 5 days

 3  BB Really scary thick clumpy discharge. Sometimes it is thicker than others but some can be the size of my thumb nail x2. Sometimes it is light pink. I was freaked out when I first saw this especially up to 4 days after finishing using the gel which was recommended to use for 5 days. F 22 5 days

 3  BV Treating a uti turns into bv. I started the pill and had HORRIBLE side effects. Was in bed for days so they swapped me to the gel. I have bloody, mucus like discharge on day 2,3,4. Almost like i lost my mucus plug if i was pregnant. Prior to the mucus discharge, I had thick white discharge with brown specs of blood in it. Tomorrow is my last day and I can't wait for this to be over. Its been a month of me fighting all these infections. I don't know how much longer I can handle it. 27 5 days

 1  Long term bv treatment I have been doing a long term treatment for recurrent infection (bv and yeast) starting with a week of pill form, 30 days of boric acid followed by three months gel form. Randomly about a month into the gel I got a severe yeast infection when I followed it with metro gel I started to get lower stomach pains and had pink tissue like discharge. I was concerned that it may have been an std so I went a got checked and I was clean for everything... when I searched the discharge results came up for metro gel so I'm almost positive this is the reason why I got this discharge. I think the pill form is more effective in curing but it does typically cause a yeast infection. F 22 1 months

 4  Bacterial Vaginosis This is the 4-5th time I've taken Metrogel. I've never experienced any symptoms except for discharge (sometimes slightly blood-tinted, other times flaky white chunks, resembling wet toilet paper) It does its job, but for some reason my BV returns after a few months. F 27 1 days

 1  BV Had an STD test---positive for BV-started Metrogel 5day dosage! Days 1-3 cramping-not severe-no discharge; SMELL DID GO AWAY AFTER DAY 2! Day 4 cramping-not severe and gel discharge--vagina is very dry and sore; Day 5 cramping-not severe--vagina is nearly untouchable from clitoris down----even hurt to blot dry!!! Lots of clumpy, white discharge but IM GLAD TO BE DONE!!! Also VERY ITCHY!!! TOOK DIFLUCAN ONE DOSE and put anti itch cream on my lady parts! The aftermath: Days 6-8 lots of white mixed with specks of red and brownish, maroon clumpy discharge. Vagina was still sore to touch and itched terribly until Day 8 Currently on Day 9-no sex, still having clumpy brown discharge--attempting to do the shower head thing and still applying the anti itch cream... Hopefully the discharge will stop SOON and I NEVER GET BV AGAIN. If so, I WILL TRY the pill. This is messy and dries your vagina terribly!! F 32 5 days

 4  BV Clumps of white / pink / brown tissue-like discharge which scared me a little. Read up on this & it seems it’s a common side effect. The gel cleared up my BV quickly though. I would take it again but the side effects are unpleasant. F 22 5 days

 1  BV I started bleeding on day 1 of using the gel😰, now on day two and its worsening. I dont know whether to stop or to continue 🙃 F 5 days

 5  BV I had a strange, off-white discharge on the second day, but I didn’t have any pain or bleeding. I think maybe it was my body’s way of literally pushing out the infection but obviously I can’t say for sure. I sometimes bet the tiniest burning sensation soon after I insert the gel each night, but it’s gone in an instant. Honestly, I’m just glad I managed to get rid of my symptoms. I had a combination of BV and a UTI and I was miserable because I’m away at college and VERY far from my regular doctor. Thought I could go to planned parenthood and get it squared away easy but nope, they’re closed all weekend. I knew there was no way I could way 2 or 3 more days to get rid of the itching, so I went to an urgent care. Turns out they don’t take my insurance. Long story short: I went to the emergency room, peed in a cup, and swabbed my vagina. UTI and BV. Picked up my prescription. Feeling 10000000000% better :) F 19 5 days

 5  BV I had to use the cream for 5 days the only side effect I had was the clumpy tissue like discharge and I was so nervous because I wasn't sure what it was . Contacted my NP and she said it's perfectly fine . States I'll have it for a few days it's only a side effect . F 23 5 days

 1  Yeast infection I used the gel one night and when I woke up to pee I noticed blood after wiping and a bit on my panty. I thought I might have hurt myself when I applied the applicator but the next day it got worse , it was like I was on my period but with blood clots and blood gel like stuff. I had bad cramps in the morning and it’s embarrassing because when I’m with my boyfriend I always have to excuse myself for the bathroom because of the stomach pains. Is this normal? I’m freaking out. And it’s only my 1st dose and the side effects or whatever are hitting me badly. I don’t like this gel F 5 days

 2  BV Tiredness Spotting Random stomach aches Increased appetite During my use of this gel, I noticed the smell was gone after two days of usage, also I noticed some white discharge during my use of this gel. Immediately after my five day application of the gel, the smell returned and the bv discharge also returned. And on the third day, after use, I started noticing spotting along with the foul smell AND excessive discharge. I still don't understand what's happening. F 17 5 days
