Agreed ^^
I'm 25 weeks pregnant my doctor prescribed me Metronidazole Vaginal Gel for a bacteria that I have, has anyone else taken this during a pregnancy ? I'm really scared I've read about women who've lost their baby by taking this gel I'm really scared I called my OB and I asked him if its safe for the baby and he said it is but I'm really concerned about this, its my first baby too. I need Help anyone ??
So just a quick question for all the women that have taken this before for bacterial vaginosis. So I started this a couple days ago and today I had a heavy amount of sticky discharge. This isnt normal for me. So I was wondering if this has happend to anyone else. Is it just the antibiotic clearing the infection.
*Did not mean to put that as the title*
But i need answers for if I'm able to masturbate while taking metronidazole pills and does anyone know if BV odor goes away after taking metronidazole cause i’m still dealing with the odor while taking the pills
I’m currently taking Metronidazole for bacterial vaginosis. Will it stop my chances of conceiving this cycle? Is it safe to try to get pregnant while taking it?
The best two antibiotics to use for the types of bacteria that usually cause bacterial vaginosis, are Clindamycin and Flagyl (metronidazole). Sometimes women have allergies to specific medications and we need to use others that are less optimal, but the best results are usually achieved with the proper antibiotics for the condition.
Good luck!

Yes, new research confirmed that bacterial vaginosis can give false positives for low-risk women who are tested for gonorrhea and chlamydia by NAAT (the urine test). It is recommended that those who are given the diagnosis of bacterial vaginosis and are then told they also have Chlamydia and Gonorrhea when they are low-risk (ie. have (-) partner and are in a monogamous relationship) should request a culture test.
Some doctors prescribe pregnant women Metronidazole for treatment of bacterial vaginosis. As for the Ibuprofen, the 1 pill she took isn't going to hurt but they don't recommend continued use of Ibuprofen or Advil during pregnancy. They recommend Tylenol or Acetaminophen. I think your baby will be fine but if you are really concerned I suggest seeing an Obstetrician.
It depends, probably, on what the metronidazole is for. If it is for a condition that can be passed to a partner, refrain from sex.
The doctor told me I had bacterial vaginosis and a yeast infection I think that's why she prescribed metronidazole and she also prescribed a cream (miconazole nitrate) I just wasn't sure if metronidazole was ok to take while pregnant. THANKS GIRLS!
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!
If u don't know ur pregnant yet can u still metronidazole nd does it harm the baby
So after seein her so upset iv done a lot of research tonight and all over the web it says this antibiotic can fail for 1 out of 11 women but there is another abtibiotic to take which is called tinidazole. So I was wonderin is this disease definitly curable and has anybody ever had metronidazole and its failed 2 work and had to take something els e.g tinidazole??
Unusual discharge can be a side effect of Metronidazole. I've found a lot of women describing this discharge as being brown and kind of clotted. I've experienced this myself and at first I thought I was getting my period as well but no... it seems to be a side-effect of the Metronidazole.
Can only rule out trich with a test. It can be difficult to test in men. But are you still having all those symptoms?
