I just spent 10 minutes crying on the toilet in pain. Before I start, no I don't have multiple sex partners, yes I'm married (together 6 years), I get check-ups at the lady doctor regularly, I've been checked & ruled out for any STIs/STDs, my husband is faithful & we have no issues there. Ok! Now, this all started Thursday night. My husband & I decided to have a bubble bath together. Although we don't do this often we just so happened to get the chance last Thursday night after all the kids were asleep. Well we sat in the for like 30 min or so then got out. No sex. Just sleep. Next morning I woke up feeling slightly irritated down there so I hurried up & found a diflucan & took that immediately thinking "oh crap the bath must have sparked up a yeast infection" because it is well known that taking baths can mess with your ph balance. Well the next day it was way worse so I head to Cvs to pick up Monistat 3 day & started on it that night. The next day was ten times worse. Like couldn't even stand up have pants on or walk. To make the long story short after the third treatment I decided to get in to see the doctor since I wasn't feeling any better & after she examined me she said she could tell it was very irritated & she automatically thought it was yeast but after looking under a microscope she said it seemed more like just a bacterial imbalance or infection. Which isn't caused by yeast but she also said it looks like it started out like a year e infection. The only thing that didn't make her feel confident that it was yeast was because the discharge was not the consistency of yeast. SO, now I'm on Flagyl which is an antibiotic for vaginal infections & I'm really paranoid that the antibiotic is going to cause yet ANOTHER yeast infection hence why she prescribed me more diflucan to take just in case that does happen. & also some topical cream called Alcortin A for antibacterial/antifungal treatment. Has this ever happened to anyone & what did u do to give yourself some relief? And am I going to be ok & back to normal or will this be a vicious cycle? I feel disgusted because all I can think about it that I have bad bacteria in my vag j j 😢! & although my husband is very supportive he just doesn't understand how a bath made this happen & I'm afraid he thinks I'm gross or something. Ugh!
