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 10 mg 1X day | 8/30/2020 | 3 | BV | Thick chunky discharge.

Was first prescribed the metro pills I read many reviews on how bad it is (also my mom was it and it didn't do her any good as far as the side effects) I the. Called and asked to be switched to the gel. Take at bed time applicator full for 5 days. Day one I was okay, still pain but odor completely gone. Day 2 I had cramping, Day 3 full in cramping and back pain. I felt the need to stop. 3 days later I am now having all of the symptoms above. The worst part is the lightheadedness which springs on the headache and the tingling is annoying! It did the job but the clumpy discharge is slowing down. I haven't been able to eat and ended up losing 5 pounds. This is by far better than the pills so definitely use this as necessary but the side effects can be annoying. | F | 21 | 5 days .75 1X day | 7/23/2021 | 3 | BV | Cramping, no appetite, bad bloating, constipation, white thick stringy discharge all 5 days, started spotting on day 4 of use which was like dark brown, full on bleeding bright red on day 5 with bad cramps. | It did get rid of the BV but I had horrible side effects. I have the Mirena IUD and not supposed to have periods. It has caused a full on period on day 5 and it's bright red blood. Prior to this on day 3 my discharge started having weird brown and red specs in it, day 4 it was bright red and white discharge and now day 5 it is all blood like I am on my period. It works for BV but all these side effects suck and I feel it's not worth it. | F | 27 | 5 days 0.75% 1X day | 8/2/2022 | 3 | The doctor prescribed it for me | I am experiencing a white and thick discharge that now doesn't want to go away. | I used the metro gel and after using the first dose i started getting this thick discharge. | F | 26 | 5 days 1X day | 5/21/2022 | 3 | BV | Brown, red, pink shredded tissue? It felt like paper but looked like shredded roast beef. Had it for the whole time. I stopped taking it on day 4 and douched and even more came out.
