STI?

I have had a discharge which is sometimes brown, sometimes yellowish or green.

I'm having some swabs done in a couple of weeks. I'm not sure if it could be BV or an STI. I used to get frequent thrush after sex when I was with my partner and bled last time we had sex.

Anybody had these symptoms? Sorry if it's too much info.

Yes, I've had those symptoms. I was Mis- diagnosed with Gonorrhoea. On first inspection the bacteria looked similar to that of Gonorrhoea until my swabs were sent for 'proper' testing. I kid you not.

At the time I had a copper coil fitted and it turned out it wasn't fitted properly (second one) as soon as that was removed the discharge stopped.

To update it was BV. So glad it's not an STI. Also it means I don't have to inform my ex because you can't transfer it to men.
