| 4 | Had BV & Yeast | So this was my first time ever having BV. Yeast are common for me & I usually know when I get them, so when I'm getting this gross smell (sorry) & horrible discharge I knew something was up. At first my gyn. gives me a single dose yeast pill....a few days later calls me back & says it looked like I had a bit of BV too so she prescribed the gel for that. I did not use it at first because everything went back to normal no smell no discharge. Discharge tried to come back so that's when I decided maybe I should use this gel. Used it & I was feeling sick like I've seen other on these reviews say but of course I thought it was just me. I had to take the gel day & night but in the day it was pretty messy so I wore a painty liner. I couldn't really see the discharge until I wiped & seen HUGE CLOTS of it just sitting there. No smell, watery, toilet tissue paper like discharge. It's now my first night off & I want to say the discharge is gone. I had it earlier in the morning but that was pretty much it. Some people have their discharge longer but I'm hopping it's gone & I don't have to deal with it anymore! Best of luck to you Guys | F | 21 | 5 days 0.75% | 11/26/2015 | 4 | Bv | Felt a little off balance (dizzy)? And had some itching | Last night was the last dose for my treatment. I've had Bv off and on for about 2 years now, was using the cleocin gel but it seems like that medicine stopped working for me so I went ahead and tried metrogel. I haven't really experienced the "clumpy cottage cheese discharge" like most have but what little does come out makes me itch. The smell is gone but I'm curious to whether it has killed the bacteria bc of the itching or if it may caused a yeast infection. I guess we shall see in the next couple days. I just can't wait to get back in bed with my man. There needs to be more research on this shit, it's a degrading thing to deal with :( | F | 21 | 5 days | 8/1/2015 | 4 | BV | Took metrogel for 5 days at bedtime as described by GYN . Started to notice white clumpy discharge w/ no odor on 2-3 day. Came up on my last day and the next morn noticed maroon colored discharged kinda freaked me out. Not to sure if that's also a side effect but I am going to consult w/ my GYN | It does work | F | 24 | 5 days | 8/3/2015 | 4 | Bv | Got an off balance feeling and itching | Tonight is last night of the metrogel.. I've had Bv off and on for about 2 years, would use cleocin every other time but I think I developed a resistance for it so now I'm giving metrogel a try. It seems to be working, but I'm concerned about this itching I'm having still. | F | 21 | 5 days | 8/1/2015 | 4 | BV | Slight itching and burning. Clumpy white discharge. I had sex with my boyfriend after day 5 wrong move. I now have swelling, burning. I guess I should have waited until it was all out of me. | The medication does get rid of the odor. | F | 42 | 5 days 75 | 8/13/2015 | 4 | BV | No side effects just severe cramps!! | I keep reading all these comments about white clumpy discharge! I'm on metro gel also it's actually my 5th day , i havent had any white clumpy discharge so I'm concerned if the infection went away !? | F | 29 | 5 days 0.75 | 8/17/2015 | 4 | BV | I immediately felt better. I'd had a pap smear 6 weeks earlier, bleed afterwards and felt like it hadn't healed. Returned to Gyno who checked, irritation in area of pap scrap and swab test revealed BV. Started taking medication and immediately within a day felt better, no hot coal feeling at site of scrape. Then a slight itchy feeling on day 6, first day after I finished my treatment. Then day seven discovered thickest, white odorless discharge. Honestly it totally freaked me out. I searched the internet thinking it was a yeast issue caused by the antibiotic and read that it was a common side effect but if I had it I needed to CALL MY DOCTOR IMMEDIATELY. That really freaked me out. It was midnight when I discovered it. Luckily I found this site and so I realize it seems to happen A LOT. The discharge is like yeast but UBER yeast, thickest, white stuff, dry in consistency and odorless. I will call my doctor tomorrow because I'm like that, but it seems it is just part of the | I agree that this should be listed as a common side effect and also if it is just something that happens lose the CALL DOCTOR IMMEDIATELY scary stuff. The discharge is scary enough. | F | 49 | 5 days .75% 1X day | 3/27/2015 | 4 | BV | Thick chunky white toilet papery discharge | Experienced slight burning around day 2. Also the discharge around the same time. Good to know that it is normal however seeing a big ball of white matter fall out of my vagina is scary. | F | 23 | 5 days | 3/14/2015 | 4 | BV | Went to the doctor because I had a odor. Had a vaginal swab and positive for bv. I took it while on my period two days later thick chunky dry like white discharge with red specs and light bleeding. So gross and yes had to scoop it out with my finger.... ewww | Bad side effect thick discharge no sex .. but it works | F | 23 | 5 days 0.75 | 3/24/2015 | 4 | bacterial vaginoses BV | white cottage cheese looking discharge in panties or when wiping as I used the gel | F | 21 | 5 days 75 MG | 4/20/2015 | 4 | bv | Thick white clumpy discharge, which I thought was yeast but after reading these post I see we pretty much have all the same side effects. Could someone tell me if this causes back pain with soreness? Right around the area where my bra strap is on the right side? I'm really scared and thinking it's a blood clot. I no longer have that foul fishy odor. I'm now just wondering about that back pain I've been having since then. Back pain started about 3 days after I was done with meds. | F | 49 | 5 days 0.75% | 5/4/2015 | 4 | Bacterial Vaginosis | A small amount of nausea, mild headache, the expected stuff. What I did NOT expect or prepare for is this thick clumpy white discharge. I have never had it before in my life and I freaked the freak out. It started light and then got heavier.At first it was like when you wipe and some toilet paper sticks there, so it is white and has the Texture of Wet toilet paper. Then it started coming out thicker and clumpier like cottage cheese-ish .I finished the gel yesterday and had some white slimy clumps this morning. It's scary....it made me want to Puke. I have no odor, no itching or burning etc. Just this white junk that I hope will go away soon! | In all honesty they should list the white cottage cheese discharge as a MAJOR Side effect and that it is completely NORMAL. We should know what to expect so that we know it's the medicine working and not some horrific infection. It would be like someone giving you a laxative and saying "here, take this for 5 days" ...and then you having no idea that it is going to make you have to go pooo. Does anyone know when this discharge will end? I feel nasty, I feel like I have a tub of cottage cheese up there, and I feel uber yucky and embarrased, and no one even knows but me! | F | 26 | 5 days .75% | 5/4/2015 | 4 | BV | Some headaches,Stomach pains, and some spotting. | I seem to get Bv over and over again. So i decided to try the gel this time because i will never again take them flagyl pills. Worst experience Ever! So Day 1 and 2 everything was fine. Day 3 i noticed the white clumps after i took a shower but it wasnt alot. But the odor was Gone, which is good! Day 4 i noticed some bleeding which freaked me out, i read it was an UnCommon side effect, but it was not my period, my period has stopped due to my birth control, so i knew it was the gel. Later that day it turned to brown muscus. Day 5 just brown Speckles everytime i go to the Bathroom. I didnt really have the white clumpy discharge that everyone else here is saying, just brown Discharge. Im one day off, and still some brown speckles. Hopefully that goes away soon. Its Definitely better then taking the Pills. | F | 24 | 5 days | 5/30/2015 | 4 | Vaginal Odor While Pregnant | I'm 13 1/2 weeks and metrogel was prescribed by my OB. I've used it in the past without any problems but now I have this thick cottage cheese looking discharge coming out after the 3rd day of use and it's really bothering me. Any information about how long this discharge stuck around after use would be greatly appreciated. Besides I don't want go another 5 days without sex with my husband. | F | 34 | 5 days Once daily | 3/9/2014 | 4 | Bacterial Infection | After using the gel for 5 days I experience white clumps of discharge but I feel okay. I also see it doing intercourse can someone tell me how long this will last? | F | 31 | 5 days 0.75 | 4/24/2014 | 4 | BV | Overall, the medication has worked for me. Well as far as I can tell, I am only on my 4th day. There has been no odor to my discharge. However, I have had a lot of cottage cheesy discharge. It's annoying but nothing a peanut liner can't control. On the 4th day I have had a few bouts of loose stool, this is a common side effect. So other than the cottage cheese and a side of loose stool it's been great so far. Hopefully, this discharge will rid itself quickly!! But let's just thank god there is absolutely no odor to the discharge. Tomorrow is my last day. | F | 22 | 5 days 5g | 6/26/2014 | 4 | BV | The only side effect I have is the creamy clunky discharge. It started two days after I finish. I seen more while I had sex. I called my doctor to see if it's not a yeast infections just in case. I believe It's normal | F | 27 | 5 days .75 | 12/2/2013 | 4 | bv infection | White thick discharge | F | 46 | 5 days .75% | 8/17/2014 | 4 | BV | On day 3 thick white dry cottage cheese discharge. Brown/Purple discharge scared me half to death. They should list these symptoms on the label or something. | I researched the discharge online and finally found that both colors are common. I used the last dose last night. This morning I still had the purple discharge. I'm unsure how long it'll last but i hope it goes away soon as I'm ready to have sex again. It's so embarrassing and I feel completely uncomfortable. I'll be consulting with my Dr today. | F | 34 | 5 days .75 | 8/4/2015 | 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 |
