Metronidazole topical for Bacterial Vaginosis "I have had BV many times over the years. The worst thing for me is the uncomfortable pain and itching. It started after menopause or once menopause started. If men have dirty hands, this can cause a problem, also, their mouth has so much bacteria and their semen. The best thing is to make sure you use a condom, especially if you have a new partner. MetroGel definitely works great, and no side effects for me. A little bit of discharge while using it and cramps, not bad though."

Metronidazole topical for Bacterial Vaginosis "Okay, so I had BV, and first my doctor called in the topical gel, but after getting the vaginal gel, I started using it as per normal. 1 applicator per night before bed. Okay, I'm gonna say I noticed a difference in feeling overnight. It felt better after the first use, but day 3 and 4 I noticed a weird discharge. Like super weird. I just finished treatment a day ago and am still having this bizarre discharge. I mean, hey, I feel better, but do not be scared if your discharge is really thick and chunky. It kind of freaked me out at first, but I read that is a normal side effect and means it’s working, so. So I mean, my coochie feels clean. Solid 7/10 experience."

Metronidazole topical for Bacterial Vaginosis "First time taking this. Worked after day one. The only thing I was concerned about was that I had a discharge that I couldn't explain. White clumpy stuff with some blood in it. But after reading reviews, seems normal. Some pelvic discomfort and back pain. Overall, liked it better than Flagyl."

For Bacterial Vaginosis "I did experience some side effects: the feeling of menstrual cramping (but not because I had a hysterectomy 8 years ago), diarrhea, some vaginal discharge. Nothing severe or unbearable."
