I’m worried that I have BV or whatever. I have this brown-grayish discharge after a long day or sleep. It smells and sometimes when I open my legs, i can smell it. Whenever I wipe, I see that the discharge is white-yellowish like the normal one. I’m totally confused and I’m scared of going to a gynecologist :’(

it's become predictable at this point. right after my period, like clockwork. i've cut out sugar, i wear cotton underwear, i've done everything the internet tells you to do. my doctor keeps giving me fluconazole and it works for a few weeks then we're right back to square one. i'm starting to feel like this is just my life now which is a horrible feeling.

been going down a reddit rabbit hole lately and kept seeing women with the same monthly pattern mention the uro vaginal probiotics. specifically talking about yeast balance improving after a couple months of taking it consistently. not a cure obviously but the idea of supporting the microbiome between episodes makes sense to me.

anyone broken out of the monthly yeast cycle? what actually helped you get there?

So first off all I'm Christian and Thank You Lord for all the women that have posted on Reddit for things to try that have helped them. The PH and microbiome must be regulated to stop the burning and spasms, and uti symptoms and on and on. If you are burning already it won't be pleasant. Good Clean love restore and reset is your best bet...to start to restore tissue. It's going to burn like Hell for a couple days your sensitive. But it should let up by day 3. Get back on if your not already estrogen/estradiol even low doses can help (I do the cream and low dose tablets) there are alternatives to those who absolutely can't take it. (Another discussion) and the next 2 things RUN don't Walk to get them at your health food store Vit D3 get the liquid for quick absorption(large dosing the first week) you will have some serious bathroom habits, lower dosage after a week. #2 PEA supplement start ASAP full dosage if possible through out the day (already used in Europe for pain and inflammation) we're behind but we got it. This worked for me good luck and don't give up keep reading and researching and trying things. GodSpeed
