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?
i have alot of discharge that smells like bitter. it started off as liquidy and blood tinged. now it is more creamy and yellow. its soooo itchy i want to die. i got tested and everything came back negative. i even used some yeast infection cream but nothing works. it is unbearable and sex is embarassing. i dont know what to doo.
I AM HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM, AFTER HAVING SEX WITH MY BOYFRIEND i noticed a smell in my vagina and a discharge aswell as itching. i took monistat and it seemed to clear up but it came back again. now its a yellowish discharge with no smell. can someone please tell me what this can be
Here's my story, Started in Jan 2010, I went to the doctor and he said it was possitive for yeast. Have done 5 different treatments for yeast, all which helped but it never seemed to completley take it away. But now the itch is gone so it has been easier to live with. Current symtoms Excessive discharge that I need to wear pantiliners, it's thick and slightly yellow, and curdy. When my doctor swabbed again in june he said everything was normal but there is white blood cells in my urine. There is no way it could be an STD. I can't stand this discharge. I can't wear a bathing suit for very long as the discharge is to heavy and having sex with my husband is embarassing and messy. I am 32 and I think I would know what is normal for my body and this isn't but my doctor seems to think it is normal. Does anyone have any ideas what it might be? Please help
Some discharge is normal, especially for sexually active women.
Where do you think his ejaculate goes? Some into uterus, but most stays in vagina and then flows out at some time. If his sperm is thick, you'll have thick discharge, if it is more like liquid, then that's what will be on your undies. Vulva can swell form being sexually aroused, and can even itch or be a bit painful until you finally have an orgasm.
Sometimes if you did not get satisfaction of an orgasm, the labia will stay swollen, since it is aroused, your female prostate can be swollen, your clitoris can be quite swollen, if you did not squirt or did not come.
Another reason for swelling, itching without infection can be that this area was physically handled quite a lot, friction and such, and when it heals, it itches. Use more lubricant, don't allow a guy to scratch it with his nails. Keep up with hygiene, but avoid soap. Soap will dry up the labia and make it itch.
Plus, if sex is quite rare occasion, you might swell every time after and even get yeast infection, which is just the overgrowth of your own vagina bacteria, the good one, but there becomes too much of it. It is called bride's itch. Try to have sex regularly, and it should subside, your vagina will get used to sexual intercourse. Male's sperm works miracles for vagina, it protects it from many bacteria, improves health of inner membranes, prevents ulcers down there.
Also, you can be allergic to latex, if you use condoms or sex toys that have latex. Try latex-free products.
