antibiotics and CM

by ashort, Jan 16, 2008 05:31PM
Just a quick question. I am on antibiotics for a sinus infection.  I get them a lot and take antibiotics about 1 or 2 times a year.  Yesterday my bding drive really went up...today the same thing.  Today when I wiped I had lots of EWCM sorry if TMI but I could stretch it really far.  Today is only CD9 ofr me.  Usually I o on CD19.  I know that antibiotics can give you a yeast infection but I have no other symptoms and this has never happened before.  Could this be a yeast infection?  Last Jan. I do remember having a 21 day cycle which was odd..could this be occuring again?

Sounds like O to me. Could be O early. I doubt the meds would give you EWCM and a yeast infection is not EWCM as far as I know its white, thick, sticky. You can def. buy a kit to detect LH surge to see if its ovulation, they also sell kits to test for yeast infection at most pharmacys too. So I would investigate either way. Goodl luck:)

Like Jennyfer said I would get the OPK's and check for a yeast infection just to be sure.  But, it sounds like o, not a yeast infection.  Yeast infections will either make you feel really dry, or else you'll have sticky, thick, even clumpy cm.    Keep bding just in  case.  (-:

Hi anti biotics can cause yeast infection as they kill off good & bad bacteria, which causes you imbalance. But you normally get itchy or sore with it. So sounds like O early.
Hope it goes ok
