| 2 | colposcopy / cryotherapy | i had an abnormal pap which led to a colposcopy and cryotherapy of my cervix. my doctor prescribed this following both procedures (about 2 months apart). following the colposcopy i took the medication for 7 days and had the white clumpy discharge that has been described before. i got my period during this time and it completely changed that as well. my doctor said he'd never heard of anyone else's period being affected by this medication. my period returned to normal the following month. but following the cryotherapy i had the white discharge, however, my cervix doesn't seem to be healing and the discharge is like nothing i've ever seen before, red and clumpy (possibly scaby) 3 weeks later. i stopped the medication last night. | ask your doctor for an alternative treatment before settling on this. | F | 35 | 22 days | 4/22/2005 | 4 | BV | Thick white clumpy wet toilet paper like discharge. I'm a pharmacist and did not expect this. I'm glad I found this site and found out that this is common. They should update their patient education to add this a a side effect, not just vaginal discharge but thick white clumpy discharge! | I am satisfied because the itching and vaginal dryness, which were my symptoms of BV, went away after the first application.

I didn't have the usual symptom of fishy discharge. | F | 28 | 5 days | 4/17/2005 | 3 | BV | After finishing the five days I developed pain, burning, itching, tons of white cottage cheese like discharge and was freaked out!

Before I was diagnosed, I didn't have any symptoms. My vagina became very sore, raw, and dry. Then, this morning, which is my fourth day of treatment, I woke up with a bad skin rash on the inside of my arms. The pharmacist says that I am probably allergic to the medication and to stop taking it immediately. I hate this medication, it's totally screwed up my body!!! | F | 28 | 3 days | 3/27/2005 | 4 | BV | I was shocked to discover a lumpy, white/red, cottage cheese looking substance that felt like wet toilet paper coming out of me.
