 3  Gardranella Thrush (both oral and vaginal), headaches, cramps, loss of appetite, breakthrough bleeding (with oral contraceptive), bloating, excessive dry discharge. I took this a week after being on penicillin for an ear infection- short course. It cleared the gardranella, but left me with yeast infections that were worse than the original problem. It has also completely destroyed my period, even on oral BC, I started a week before the placebos, bleeding chunky and licorice black. My normal period was then heavy for a day and is back to deep brown and very badly clotted. Cramps are terrible. NOT recomended. F 27 6 days

 4  BV The Metrogel helped as soon as I used it on Day 1. I was experiencing very uncomfortable burning prior to meds. I just finished my 5day dose and I noticed the white-tissue paper like discharge. I was relieved to see that this is normal. I'm still stlightly concerned because I've noticed that at different points during the day I still feel a slight burning sensation. I'm hoping this goes away but if not its back to the doc.

 4  Bacterial Vaginosis Slight cramping, Clumpy white discharge I really had no side effects. Really, I just had slight cramping and this clumpy white discharge. Seems like the BV is gone and that's all I could hope for. It was easy to use and convenient (IMO) I'd rather do the gel then the pill because I'd rather it go to the site of the problem rather then through my whole body. As for the clumpy white discharge I'm thinking it's just a side effect of the gel but if it is a yeast infections as others state they got with similiar discharge, I have no pain, itching, or discomfort. Just the discharge which has no odor. It's just there. However, if it is a yeast infection, I'd rather have that then the BV. F 19 5 days

 5  BV None! :) I am allergic to so many medications. Was VERY concerned to try this especially after reading patient reviews. I'm the 1% that usually gets the weird side effects listed. Put off taking it for about 6 weeks. So pleasantly surprised and happy that I did not get ANY side effects at all and I did not even get any discharge! F 53 5 days

 4  Possible BV; pH imbalance Day 1: Mild body aches; warm feeling; mild cramping; metal taste at the end of the day. Day 2: Cramping is gone, but metallic taste in my mouth remains; higher anxiety than normal (I'm prone to anxiety and am on Prozac... I just seemed more anxious than normal and more apt to have random panic attacks); fast heart rate. Day 3 and onward: anxiety; some vaginal itching; clear or yellow gel coming out. I did not experience the white, clumpy discharge (just the gel coming out in the morning and afternoon, which is normal). My doctor prescribed Metrogel for a possible BV infection and pH imbalance. I took it for 5 days at night before going to bed. I experienced mild side effects. The anxiety bothered me the most out of everything, though. I heard the pill form can cause extreme anxiety, but not the gel. My anxiety level just seemed higher than normal and it was a bit uncomfortable for a while, but not unbearable. The metallic taste in my mouth was annoying, but tolerable. It subsided a bit on day 3 and onward. Other than that, I had no issues and did not experience the white, chunky discharge a lot of people have. I also took Diflucan for a possible yeast infection one day before starting Metrogel and am taking probiotic pills everyday. This helps to prevent any yeast infections from occurring during treatment, too. So far, the BV infection seems to be gone and there's no more smell, so that's awesome. : ) F 28 5 days

 4  BV Cramping, thick white clumpy discharge, very small to dime sized clots, lethargy So glad I found this site! Symptoms of BV disappeared almost immediately after first treatment. I read on the side effects that cramping could occur, but once the discharge and clotting appeared after the third treatment I began to freak out thinking I was either having a bad reaction or I was possibly pregnant without knowing it and miscarrying. None of these side effects were discussed with me by the doc. F 22 5 days

 5  bv Was on a 5day dose. Odor was gone after the first day. There is a white clumpy discharge that popped up on day 3, just 2days post treatment now. Thought I had a yi but clearly others have had same experience. I'll keep an eye on it as I did read that they are possible side effects. Really glad I found this site. And my Dr said I could drink during the treatment, which I don't think interfered at all F 28 4 days

 2  BV Bleeding, white clumpy discharge, cramping I'm glad that I found this website. It really is a comfort knowing that you're not alone out there. I got 3 days into using the gel before I started bleeding. I've discontinued use because it's rather unnerving, but it's 3 days later and the bleeding has continued. It started as a very mild amount the first day and I've had lots of that disgusting tissuey discharge. The bleeding might possibly have to do with my IUD? There's no sign of BV anymore, but I really hope that the rest of this sh*t stops soon because I'm starting to freak out. F 27 5 days
