She tested the discharge, determined that I had bacterial vaginosis and put me on
metronidazole for 7 days, taking 1 pill every 12 hours. In this time frame, my period also came within 2 days of starting taking the pill. Once my period was over, I still had 2 days worth of the pill left. But, this is when the irritation got worse. I had a discharge of something light yellow and chunks. The skin on my vulva was extremely raw to the point where it was tearing and ripping.
