Vaginal soreness

Looking fir similar experiences.

about 2 months ago I was very sore/burning/ achey “down there” one evening I went for a wee and felt an almighty tearing sensation in my vagina that shot down my leg- took my breath away! When i wiped there was some pink spotting. Next day i went to the out of hours. Dr did dipstick and swab. Urine came back fine but swab showed bacterial vaginosis. GP did no prescribe antibiotics due to no smelly discharge? 2 months on i am still irritated achey and sore down there… the type of thing you expect to subside soon but it hasnt. Ive also been experiencing some very minimal pink spotting mid-cycle coinciding with particular painful days/lots of walking. The pain is worse when sitting/ stretching / pressure on it . Went back to GP who did another swab, waiting results, could this still be the BV? I do have discharge but i dont think its abnormal 🤷🏻‍♀️ thank you

I think you might be on the wrong board op!

Did you mean to put this in genealogy or were you looking for gynaecology? Suggest you ask MN to move to women's health. Could absolutely be BV.

It did make me smile! (And easily done!)

Hope you get it sorted soon @Rainymay12 and if no joy with the GP, ask to see another one.
