Slightly Yellow Discharge/ Swollen Labia/BV?
Okay, heres my story. I had unprotected sex with a male partner. A couple days later, I noticed some minor itchy/irritation of the vulva. I went to my health center, they screened me for gonnohrea/chlaymdia/trich, etc. All came back negatitive. They said I had a yeast infection. Used the treatment they gave me, and it did not work. I then began to notice a slight yellow thin snotty looking discharge. I went to Planned Parenthood because I thought maybe they missed something. Had all the same screening done, and they said that I def had BV infection, and that all the std tests once again came back negatitive. They gave me flagyl, which seemed to clear up the discharge, but the vulva was still swollen/ irritated. Then I notice the discharge again, this time it is much heaver, and constant. I went to my obgyn, same std tests, neg results. Says she sees no sign of infection, sends me off like nothing is wrong. I have been dealing with this for months, is it possible that I do have an std infection and that these tests are not very accurate? If i did have trich, the flagyl should have cleared it up, and can BV cause this vulva irritation? They have even began to tell me I might have vulvodynia, this seems ridiculous, i have never had a problem before, and discharge is not normally a symptom?
Hi, I just wanted to let eveyone know that I too have been have the same trouble for over a year now. My doctor was not listeneing to me and kept treating me for BV and yeast infections and it was not going away. I started seeing my old doctor and he said that it was due to inflamation. So we have tried several of the same treatment that were discussed up above. None of which has helped. So last week I went to a new doctor and she took some samples from my cervic and Labia (very painful if you have this done) and they call me today with the results. She said that it was due to chronic ulcers. I never knew you could get ulcers in your vigina, but I guess you can. She said that some times it can be related to an autoimmune (mis spelled) disorder. I also have a thyroid disorder and just had to have it removed 3 weeks ago because it was inflamed and starting to cause breathing problems. I asked if the inflamation could have spread through my body and be causing these problems and they said no, but I'm not sure it not all related. Any way I go back to my thyroid doctor next week and she said to have him do some other test there to see about the autoimmune thing. After I heard back from them I will post an update. Hope this helps someone out there.

keep seeing a different doctor until you get a decent answer. Its not normal and you shouldn't have to put up with it. Try making a diary of your symptoms to see when there appear or are worse. PS did you know some STI's wont show up in testing for up to a month after exposure to the disease (so your previous tests could have been too early and hence showed a false negative). You know I wish doctors had to experience every sypmtom they brush off as normal.... it might make them much more sympathetic.
sorry i forgot to add that your sexual partner should be tested to (or he could just be reinfecting you) and i would recommend using condoms til its all sorted out
I have the very same discharge and all and I have been diagnosed with HPV.They say you can be positive for it and go back to the dr say 6 months later and it be cleared up on its own.They say it comes and goes.Well needless to say I have been positive for it very single visit for the last 2 years.Tell your gyn you want an HPV test.People are just now becoming aware of the disease.
