Avatar n tn s after having taken 7 tablets in total prior with 3 left), I had sexual intercourse twice with my boyfriend (using condoms both times) and he gave me oral sex without using any protection. After, I was really worried if either of this (sexual intercourse or the oral sex) would affect my treatment of the BV at all or have an impact on the metronidazole working and its effectiveness? Is it advisable to avoid sex during the course of taking the metronidazole?

Avatar f tn I’ve had positive ovulation tests on the day before my ovulations, and had intercourse around ovulation, but nothing has happened. I recently started taking Geritol and Prenatal Vitamins because I have heard a lot of women who were trying for a long time Lucked up and conceived after taking those things.
Avatar n tn Lots of things, a prolapsed uterus, vaginismus, infection, intercourse esp vigorous, trauma to the area, be more specific where and when and how bad and what type of pain. I am a nurse with L&D experience maybe I can help but I can only suggest you need to see your Gynecologist asap!
Avatar m tn I went to see my Gyno on 4/16 and was prescribed Metronidazole 500mg and Fluconazole 150 mg tablets. After treatment, my symptoms did not stop or lessen. I then was prescribed Clindamycin 2% vaginal cream 40gm on 5/3. After treatment, my symptoms still exists. Occasionally I will have sharp pelvic pains, like horrible cramping. It does not last long and is not constant. I've only been sexually active with my husband, no one else. Since March, I have been bleeding after intercourse.
Avatar f tn I have an aweful smell everytime after me and my fiance have sexual intercourse and when i douche it doesnt go away. No matter how clean i am down there.

Avatar m tn but then there was alot of discharge and i looked in themirror and it was thick and white and I freaked out. went to the OB and got a pap smear. results came in after a week and said i had inflammation and bacterial vaginosis. and I was prescribed metronidazole 2tabs a day for 7 days. I believed that the symptoms and especially the discharge would go away within 2-3days while taking the antibiotics. I finished the antibiotics but was still having itchiness and discharge.
Avatar n tn It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.

Avatar f tn I have Recurrent bacterial vaginosis (Gardnerella) for 15 years and tried different treatments (metronidazole, boric acid, probiotics, apple cider, hydrogen peroxide, I have BV every single time after intercourse.

Avatar f tn I have for Bacterial Vaginosis (Gardinella) for 15 years almost every single month after intercourse? I take metronidazole every month, but after sex BV comes back again and again. And doctors don't know how to help me.PLEASE ASVISE ME a DOCTOR who can treat recurrent BV! Thank you !!!
Avatar f tn Bacterial vaginosis is usually the culprit for a smell and dishcharge especially after sex. Since you are pregnant its very important that you see your doctor to get some metronidazole or clyndimicin prescribed to clear it up. It can have adverse affects when you're pregnant and it goes untreated. It is not an STD and isnt usually spread man to woman or vice versa.
Avatar f tn When I found out that I had trich, I bought Metronidazole and took 2grams (1 dosage) of it. Metronidazole made me feel really sick! Anyway, after a week I realized that I still had trich. Exactly the same symptoms were still there. So, I took Tinidazole.. a 2g dose. When will this take effect? I took tinidazole after I had dinner and went to sleep right away so that I won't feel the side effects of which I had when I took Metronidazole.
Avatar m tn No, I havent done any testing yet, as at the time of writing my post I was just finished with the Metronidazole, and still hoped it would kick in. Do you know after how much time does it take for the trich symptoms to diminish / disappear after starting the Metronidazole treatment? I searched all over the web, and all the sites seem to answer the obvious questions, ones that have been posted on hundreds of websites, but...
Avatar n tn I have vagunal odour kind of fishy but it doesn't happen all the time n sometimes it also comes with alot of discharge and it doesn't happen after i have sexual intercourse....... What could this be?
Avatar f tn I visited the doctor Monday with a vaginal infection and was given Metronidazole to start taking. I went back for results Wednesday and I was confirmed to have BV. My doctor then gave me Erythromycin to take (2, twice a day)... as well as the Metronidazole (3, three times a day). This seems like an awful lot of antibiotics. Why was I given Erythromycin, when from as far as I can tell, Metronidazole alone is the recommended treatment for BV? Hope someone can shed some light on this. Thanks!
Avatar n tn The doctor gave me Metronidazole pills to take to treat Trich and should told me i couldnt have any alcohol 3 days before and after takin the pills including the alcohol in mouthwash bc it was cause a bad stomach ache. i was also wondering if this included my toothpaste which has mouthwash beads? Or is regular toothpaste better or not good either?

They told me to take a high dose 2000 MG one dose to cure it havent had sex cause I am NOT going through this med again!!!!!! No THANK YOU!!! makes me feel like total POO!!!
Avatar f tn Although rare, a small proportion of trich are resistant to metronidazole and tinidazole and it would be good to close this loop, making sure that the treatment you both took worked. 3. It sounds like you have been checked for signs of inflammation in your urine or a smear from your penis, is this correct? This would be a check for white blood cells (WBCs). If not done, it should be. If this is negative, there is little chance that there is persistent inflammation. 4.
Avatar f tn I should agree with dochiru that you need systemic treatment, it may involve use of co-trimoxazole(Biseptol), metronidazole(local or systemic) and maybe other combined preparations, however the treatment should not be initiated without a doctors consultation. Visit a doctor prior to taking any meds. And lastly, during treatment for Vaginitis you should avoid all sexual contacts. So it is not probable that you will get pregnant during that time. P.s.
Avatar m tn I think that with no improvement at all following treatment combined with the fact that your symptoms are not suggestive of classical prostatitis (and, I presume are not similar to your prior prostatitis symptoms) you need to either have an in-depth discussion with your doctor or get a second opinion. It is time for more tests and/or a different stratgy. While a dose of metronidazole is worth a try, presuming that it does not help, I think you need further evaluation.
Avatar f tn After having vaginal itching and an odorous discharge I went to my doctor. I had a pap done and the results came back that I had trichomonas. She prescribed 4 ea, 500 mg tablets of metronidazole to be taken all at once. I laundered all clothing, sheets, towels, etc in hot water to avoid recontamination. My husband also got treated and we have not had sex since before I was diagnosed. The symptoms went away but returned in about 3 weeks. I was again prescribed the antibiotic.
