Hi there and welcome to the forum. Bacterial vaginosis can be so resiliant and keep coming back. Often they treat partners with the flagyl as well. Sounds like you've been treated for this.
Now that you've had BV, you know that there are usually characteristics to this type of discharge between consistency and smell, right?
So is this discharge different?? I know that my hormones can affect my discharge. Sometimes I have more or less depending on them. It's actually pretty normal.
If you continue ot have it after a period of time,you can go back to your doctor and have it cultured. Then they can see if it is yeast, bacteria or normal vaginal secretions/discharge. But it very well could be normal.
good luck
Hello,
The normal vaginal discharge is not foul smell and is usually clear or milky. There are certain things that may cause change in appearance of vaginal discharge like menstrual cycle, ovulation, emotional stress, use of pills or diet.
The increased discharge could be due to physiological reasons like rise of hormone level (oestrogen) which is seen- during puberty, menstrual cycle, sexual excitement, pregnancy etc. It could be also seen in poor personal hygiene, non-infective cervical lesions, uterine prolapse, chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, use of contraceptive pills, onset of vaginal infection or sexually transmitted disease etc.
It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
