Bacterial Vaginitis
"My doctor took several vaginal samples and tested for yeast, all std&#039;s, and bacteria.  The ONLY thing that was positive was g. Gardnerella, which is bacteria.  She gave me flagyl 500 MG daily x7 days and told me to use metrogel 2x a week for 4-6 months.  Still not better and just finished 5 weeks of the gel, which is 10 doses.  I have zero odor, never had any, but my discharge is like acid.  My skin around the vaginal opening is extremely red and it burns and sometimes I itch.  I&#039;m majorly frustrated.  I have used desitin and vaseline to try and keep the discharge from burning me so bad (docs suggestion) but those tend to make me worse!  I&#039;m truly so depressed I just don&#039;t feel like this is ever going to go away.  No sex  for 5 months now."
