So I’m 14 weeks pregnant and found out that I had BV so I was prescribed Flagyl for 7 days. Well the day that I got my presciption filled, before I even started taking the pills, I started feeling very itchy down there, something I never felt the whole time I was waiting for the results back to see if I had BV. I have been taking the Flagyl and have a doctors appointment scheduled for Monday but the symptoms have gotten worse. It seems the BV is clearing up, as I was having a fishy odor before that is now gone, but now I’m itchy and burning down there. I’ve never had a yeast infection so I don’t know what they are like but I’ve had thicker discharge, I wouldn’t really say it’s like cottage cheese, just thick and it doesn’t smell fishy or particularly bad, it just smells the way I would imagine "yeast" to smell. I am absolutely miserable, not only is our sex life suffering because of this but I can’t sleep at night and I don’t even want to go anywhere because my lady parts are so uncomfortable. : ( Can anyone tell me before I get the chance to talk to my doctor what this is and what I can do to treat it, being pregnant and on medication for BV already? Please & thanks…

I was treated for BV. I really didn’t know I had it until i noticed an unpleasant odor after sex. I read online to apply yogurt and also eat yogurt which was fine. I don’t have any other symptoms lie discharge or itchiness. It was just that one time with the odor. Like a fishy smell (sorry to gross anyone out). It went away after applying the yogurt. The next month i noticed it come back but very light. Then the next month again. It seems to be happening only the 2nd and 3rd day after my period finishes but only after sex. I took Flagyl pills for 5 days. The doctor did not prescribe any creams. When I finished it, i noticed after my period again on the 2nd and 3rd day there is only a slight very very slight change in the way it smells down there. Nothing crazy only I can notice since I know how my body is. So my question is (since my doctor is closed today I can not call)…… 1.) Does that mean the Flagyl didn’t work? 2.) Did I also need to take a cream with the pills? And 3.) She said my husband didn’t need to take any pills but is that true? Does he really need to? Why do you think this is? I wash with water all the time when i use the bathroom and after sex. I don’t douche since I heard that is bad. Is it the sperm that is doing that? Any suggestions? I noticed it right after i finished the medication too so i thought it would help. i am negative for all other things
