| RATING | REASON | SIDE EFFECTS FOR METROGEL-VAGINA | COMMENTS | SEX | AGE | DURATION/ DOSAGE | DATE ADDED |
| 5 | BV | Light discharge and mild cramping. | Would take again if needed. Anything is better then the smell of BV. | F | 38 | 5 days .75% Gel 1X day | 5/30/2010 | 5 | Yeast Infection | Experienced headaches, nausea, and slight dizziness in the beginning. | Has really helped. Stopped the itching within 30 min on the first day. By the second day, the itching had almost completely stopped, but experienced clumpy white discharge. By day three, the discharge stopped and the itching completely stopped. Day four is tomorrow and I'm expecting that it will be completely healed after treatment. Prescribed two Diflucan pill as well. Overall I am satisfied | F | 21 | 5 days 1X day | 4/9/2010 | 5 | Bacterial Vaginosis | None really, just a little bit of the white clumpy discharge. I was afraid of having stomach upset as so many reported on here because I have a queasy stomach, but none at all. | This medicine was wonderful. The odor was significantly reduced after one dose and completely gone after only two doses. Most people who get BV will have a recurrence at some point, and I am so glad to know this medicine is out there! | F | 38 | 5 days 1X day | 5/24/2010 | 5 | Dr. diagnosed me with BV. | None whatsoever | It sticks inside me really well. I recommend wearing a pad during the day, just to guard against messiness. | F | 54 | 5 days 30 MG 1X day | 5/24/2010 | 5 | Bacterial Vaginosis (BV) | None | I have had BV several times. Flagyl tablets make me completely sick but the vaginal gel works faster to stop symptoms and causes no side effects for me. Easy to use and super effective. | F | 32 | 5 days 37.5 mg 1X day | 5/27/2010 | 5 | BV | White Clumpy Discharge- no other side effects | The smell went away after the first day! I Just completed my 5day Treatment | F | 23 | 5 days .75% 1X day | 7/25/2010 | 5 | bv | I am on day 4 of metrogel and I stumbled across this page looking to see if the white clumpy discharge was normal and how long it would last. Good to know it is completely normal and I have not had any side effects other than headaches.the gel helped the smell after the first dose, but I wish someone might know how long the clumpy discharge lasts after you finish the treatment? | F | 20 | 5 days 1X day | 8/6/2010 | 5 | bacterial vagina | Headache, the worse thing for me was the achy body in the morning, no energy but a small price to pay for the comfort that comes after u are done taking it! Everyone has different side effects, mine were not bad at all and I'm terrified to take any medication and I had very little side effects. So don't be scared by what others say try it yourself you may find it's not that bad! A word of advice take yeast infection meds the first day you start this medication to avoid any yeast or discharge problem. I took Diflu, it's a one time pill and last for seven days in the body. Good luck ladies! | I took this medication for 5 days and I'm glad I did! Try it most women tolerate it quite well. Good luck ladies and God bless u all! | F | 44 | 5 days 75 1X day | 8/10/2010 | 5 | BV | thick white discharge w/clumpy red blood tissue and slight cramping pain, also very smelly gas. | i was worried when i saw red tissue chunks in my discharge but i seen that im not the only one experiencing those symptoms, im on day 4 of 5 and everything seems to be fine the fishy smell and itchy burning have gone away almost as soon as i started the treatment and i can only hope that its all over soon and i do not get a triggered yeast infection like many have said happened to them after using this treatment. | F | 21 | 5 days .75% 1X day | 9/27/2010 | 5 | BV | None. BV appears to be gone. | Everything went fine -- I had zero side effects and the smell has been gone since the first dose. I hope it stays gone. I miss my nightly glass of wine, however, and am at the 48 hour mark tonight since my last dose. Hopefully, it will be fine because I think I will have a glass or two tonight. :-) | F | 49 | 5 days 30MG 1X day | 10/10/2010 | 5 | BV | No side effects except for a little discharge of the gel while wiping after using restroom. | Smell and itch gone after first dosage.I will indeed use this if/when needed again.This is my first time having BV. | F | 46 | 5 days 0.75 1X day | 10/20/2010 | 5 | BV | Headac., Cramping. dizzy, tiredness, sleepy. | i am on my 3rd day man when i tell u this gel works miracles... i have no smell now, feels good to pee and DISCHARGE FREE... | F | 24 | 5 days .75% 1X day | 8/16/2010 | 5 | BV | Clumpy white discharge | Positive experience aside from the weird white clumps. BV was gone after the first dose. Discharge was most noticeable the first few days and then tapered off. 48 hours off the gel, I was able to have sex with no odor or discharge. | F | 23 | 5 days 1X day | 11/9/2011 | 5 | bv | Cramping nausea discharge fatigue secondary infection (yeast) | This is the first time I have had Bv. The antibiotic gave me a yeast infection but I get those frequtly after 27 years of Type I diabetes and almost every time I have ever used any antibiotics. | F | 32 | 5 days 1X day | 9/25/2011 | 5 | BV | White clumpy discharge | After Day 1, odor went away. After Day 3, white clumpy discharge like wet toilet paper. After having reviewed this site, I feel relieved to see that that seems typical. Wish the pamphlet would've been more descriptive. I have avoided sex (hard!), but not alcohol. No adverse effects that I can tell from having had a drink. | F | 31 | 5 days 1X day | 9/10/2011 | 5 | possible bv/pH imbalance | day one: stomach cramps, slight nausea, after day one i had no other symptoms except for slight discharge (gel and small white clumps). I also had my period a couple of days after i started the medication...i kept taking it...even added 2 more days to the 5 day dosage (but used less medication 1/2 applicator full) i figured that i should "wean" myself off the medication...i also figured my period could affect the absorption...to my knowledge, the bacteria that causes bv tend to "stick" to the vaginal walls very well...i assume the white clumpy stuff is a result of extreme shedding of the walls - killing and expelling the bacteria | overall this was my first and hopefully ONLY incidence of bv. i actually was not fully diagnosed...i was on a strong antibiotic, then had my monthly, then had sex with my bf of 6 years. i initially had some discharge that went away by the time i saw my doc. she told me "i was fine" but would prescribe me this med because "i came in for a reason". i initially decided not to take it, i thought i didn't have any more symptoms - but after having sex...i definitely was not normal. took the medication, supplemented with vit C, folic acid, femdophilus probiotic, an additional probiotic PB8, vit B, vit E, zinc, vit D. i also took 1 diflucan after day 7. i am about 5 days off the medication, still taking my supplements, and so far so good. i wanted to add a positive post for all of you that are worrying. i hope that you find a solid regimen that will help you with your issue. i've only had this problem this one time, but with caution i would like to avoid it forever. i was already healing prior to the metrogel with my supplements but i believe that it ultimately cleared everything. | F | 29 | 5 days 1 applic. 1X day | 8/25/2011 | 5 | BV | I had no side effects....I was very scared to take this after I had read some of the reviews and side effects that other people had but I was fortunate and had none. | I did have a little bit of the reddish/brown stuff but that was about it and it wasn't that bad at all. Just wear a panty liner so you don't get the gel and some other that other stuff on you | F | 33 | 5 days 1X day | 3/18/2011 | 5 | bacterial infection | I originally thought I was coming down with a UTI. The dr. wasn't sure what was wrong, so he took 2 different cultures. Turns out I had a bacterial infection. I took the Metrogel for 5 days (at bedtime) and had no side effects...by the 3rd dose, the uncomfortable feeling was gone, so I was thrilled. However, now it's a few days after finishing my last dosage...and all of a sudden, I'm kinda itchy. I hope that I now don't have a yeast infection! | F | 51 | 5 days .75% 1X H | 3/18/2011 | 5 | BV | Small amount of the metrogel discharge. | Had to use this twice as it did not work the first time.I highly recommend getting some fem dophilus and start taking it on day 3.I believe that is why my BV is gone. | F | 46 | 5 days .75 1X day | 12/8/2010 | 5 | BV | White thick discharge after completing last day and thin clear discharge during 5 days. | I figure the clear discharge is just the excess medicine coming back out. But Im not sure what the thick discharge is that Im getting now. My fifth day was friday and its not monday. I dont why I haveit, anyone have the same thing? | F | 22 | 5 days 1X day | 3/21/2011 |
