I had been struggling with bv for about a year and it was absolutely exhausting. The smell was horrible and it made me so insecure, i believe it was something about my partner that was causing it. When I first was diagnosed with it my gynocologist gave me the oral antibiotics which tasted horrible. It went away for a little while but as soon as I started having sex again it came back.

I had been struggling with bv for about a year and it was absolutely exhausting. The smell was horrible and it made me so insecure, i believe it was something about my partner that was causing it. When I first was diagnosed with it my gynocologist gave me the oral antibiotics which tasted horrible. It went away for a little while but as soon as I started having sex again it came back. Then she prescribed me nuvessa. At first it seemed to work, it went away for about 3 months but after my partner and I started having sex again it came back. I was horrified and purchased boric acid suppositories online got a quick cover up but they would literally cover it up for less then a week. I tried nuvessa again but it barely worked the second time around. I was so fed up with the messy suppositories. My doctor finally prescribed clindesse.I had read the reviews and was little nervous about the side effects of possible yeast infection but I am so happy that I tried this medication. I have been BV free now for a while, it feels so good to be rid of it. I hope it never comes back and I didn't even get a yeast infection. I would definitely recommend giving this medication a try.

I had trouble with BV and occasional UTIs until I learned what caused them and Iâ??ve been able to avoid both. I was a little careless recently and was happy when my doctor offered the one time dose instead of the usual week long Flagyl treatment. Itâ??s definitely easy to use and worked right away. However, I started itching pretty bad day after two days and started to see a change to a ... Show Full Comment

I had trouble with BV and occasional UTIs until I learned what caused them and Iâ??ve been able to avoid both. I was a little careless recently and was happy when my doctor offered the one time dose instead of the usual week long Flagyl treatment. Itâ??s definitely easy to use and worked right away. However, I started itching pretty bad day after two days and started to see a change to a thicker white discharge. So now I have a yeast infection and Iâ??m trying not to treat until day 7 but itâ??s hard. I wish I would have chosen the 7 day flagyl pills and avoided drinking alcohol instead. Also, people with recurrent BV. Semen is my biggest trigger. Any semen gets in me and I end up with BV. It sucks to have to be careful but so does smelly like a fish.

This drug was easy to use but on day 3 it caused some itching/burning of the vulva. It seems as if this is just a side effect. When I wipe the residue that leaks out it often times stops burning but now Iâ??m just not sure if this common or a yeast infection. I donâ??t think I see yeast like discharge only the drug. I am now on day 6 and still the drug is coming out. Really wish the doct ... Show Full Comment

Hopefully in a few more days I will feel better.

I find reviews to be helpful for people looking for real life answers like myself. Information is valuable. I had been dealing with BV for 6 long torturous months.

I find reviews to be helpful for people looking for real life answers like myself. Information is valuable. I had been dealing with BV for 6 long torturous months. The fishy smell was embarrassing and it would make me nauseous after while. When I got tested from my gynecologist, she told me that I was borderline BV....so they refused to give me anything. After a 2nd visit and more compliants from me because it would come back every single month after I took Monistat every month....my doctor finally prescribed me with Clindesse! The rx was like $120 even with my insurance! Luckily, my dr gave me a coupon and it dropped the price down to around $40. I inserted the vaginal cream that same night (it's only one dose). Ever since I inserted it, I've had no more fishy smell and no more thin milky discharge....and it's been 2 months so far that I'm BV free! I'm so relieved! However, I did get a yeast infection that keeps coming back after I've tried several treatments (I tried Monistat, Diflucan and Gynazole). BV gone but YI is still lingering around. I'm currently trying boric acid suppositories for my reoccurring YI. I hope it works. But as far as Clindesse for BV, it worked for me! I'm 2 months free of BV and I was getting them every month for the last 7 months! I would recommend Clindesse but please beware of possible yeast infection or UTI. I hope that this information helps.
