Avatar f tn The characteristic symptom of trichomoniasis infection is a heavy, frothy, yellow-green, fishy-smelling discharge from the vagina. The infection can also cause discomfort during sex, vaginal itching, pain when passing urine and occasionally stomach pains. Diagnosis can be confirmed only after pelvic examination and swab samples of the discharge and cervix swabs.Treatment depends on the same.
1354741 tn?1277181242 I am pre-menopausal and have had a dark, bloody and thick vaginal discharge between periods. I have sought medical care and my doctor doesn't seem concerned so much because I am of menopause age. Most recently I saw him because of a blister type lesion that appeared on my labia. Diagnostic culture ruled out herpes but I still have this discharge. He recommended that I return should the blister return. Is it normal for me to have this discharge if I am pre-menopausal.
Avatar f tn I have had this as well! Husband has had a vasectomy. I am in my mid fifties, and I am POST-meno. Has not happened recently, but definitely not liquid from bladder. I wouldn't describe the event as having "poured out of my vagina", actually, and not even after he pulled out, but perhaps "a sudden increase of vaginal fluid during sex". Enough to wet his balls.
Avatar m tn We heard that after 1 year of last period with out any other period can be menopause but if a vaginal blood occurs after can be other problems non related to menopause, like cervical cancer. Her last pap was 2 years ago and everything was ok, before that every year she had her pap, this is the longest time with out taking this routine examination, any comment will be really appreciatted.

548780 tn?1233769602 I'm menopausal now but never experienced multiple infections during peri-menopause. And I'm exposed to all kinds of nasty germs and parasites at my job. Do you mean a vaginal infection or just general infections in the body like throat or from a cut? I've read about eating yogurt to keep the gut flora healthy. Some articles say it helps with vaginal ph and health too. Not sure how that works. Taking antibiotics throws your body out of whack anyway.
Avatar n tn I am a 42 year old woman, possibly with onset of early menopause (when last I saw my Gyno he mentioned this would probably happen, I'm assuming this is why my periods inconsistant or I don't get them). I have been experiencing MAJOR itching of my labia and around my anus. The itching is so severe at times, I scratch in my sleep till I bleed. It feels as though there is something crawling on me.
1560663 tn?1298046527 t had sex for years. I have a yellowish discharge and it stings a bit when I pee. Last month I had a kidney infection and I was put on Cipro and I also had a colonoscopy where diarriea was involved and I think it may have caused some bacteria. What is the name of a non std vaginal bacterial infection and how is it normally treated and can it be treated naturally. Thanks for any help you can give. I am also going through menopause. Oh my Doctor also diagnosed me last month as pregnant.
Avatar n tn Hi Witch: Yes, you're probably experiencing vaginal dryness due to menopause. We all slow down a bit as we age, and sexual response is no exception. You will find that even though you're turned on, you produce less lubrication. This is where Replens comes in. It's the closest thing to our natural lubrication and is widely available at drugstores.
Avatar f tn Hello Sandra, I am 58 as well and been in post menopause for a couple of years. I have read and heard that our bodies can still produce just enough hormone for us to bleed like that, especially if you are on synthetic hormones. I have used the bio-identical hormones and even they can cause break through bleeding. Last year, I had the vaginal discharge that was red-tinged.
Avatar f tn Hello, Brown vaginal discharge is most often associated with old endometrial tissues. In other words, if your period is late you might get a brown, rather than red, discharge. It could also mean that for whatever reason during your last menses the entire uterine lining failed to make a timely exit. In some cases however there is cause for concern like cervical cancer, pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID), menopause, or sexually transmitted diseases like gonorrhea and Chlamydia .
Avatar f tn and one thing i forgot to tell u that 2 question which i asked in previous answer if both answer are negative then u have normal vaginal white discharge which is due to hormonal changes may b seen during puberty pregnancy at the time of menopause..so no need to worry for that ..
Avatar m tn We were taking vacation in a very calm place (april 2012) and suddenly she starst having a little blood discharge from her vagina, she mentioned me that she feels same sintomathology than her periods, then Aug (2012) she had the same vaginal blood discharge and period like sintomathology, both discharges are very very little. We are very worry thinking that this can be a serious problem.
Avatar f tn An ultrasound via vaginal route or a uteroscope inserted via vaginal route to look at the condition of the cervix, uterus etc, a PAP smear, a vaginal swab test, a culture of the vaginal discharge, a complete STD panel are probably what are required. It could also be an allergic reaction to soaps, cosmetics, douches, razor etc that you use. Hence eliminate them one by one and see if it helps.
Avatar f tn I'm 52, I went one year and no cycle and then boom had a cycle, so had a biopsy, that said everything is fine, and uterus has atrophied, meaning menopause. As of May 2016, it will be a year again. But by monthly symptoms, I used to have are ten times worse. I've always had breast tenderness, but now, omgosh, and they hurt under my arms too, I had one breast leaking a pale yellow fluid around cycle time. Mammo was fine, now the other one is doing it.
Avatar f tn m not sure what you mean. Vaginal discharge does have a smell but if it is a yeasty smell, then you may have a yeast infection. You can get this from taking antibiotics for something else. Basically the antibiotics destroy all the normal bacteria we have and the yeast take over. Does it itch?
