I think you really need to see the gynecologist about this. When self treatment doesn't do the trick and things are not improving, then it's time to get professional help. Also the a doctor would be the best person to answer the questions you've raised about the pill effects, etc.

yea it sounds like its been going on a while so its probely time to go to they gyno, sorry. I hope it gets better soon.

yeah...im gonna try not to chicken out this time....see i have to go to planparenthood...so the idea of sittin there is a little un-nerving...but i think you are right... i gotta go and see the doctor...im gonna go this tuesday with one of my friends...but has anyone else had an experience where there bc pills have given them yeast infections?....do you think that maby switching methods of bc would help...i know i should ask my doctor....and i will....just in the mean time it would help to know if ne1 has had this problem bf...and maby how they fixed it?

i have never had a problem with bc like that. But i just wanted to say if your thinking about changeing bc look into the nuva ring. i swiched to it like a little over a month ago its much easier. look into it.

update.....i just got a pelvic exam and i have bacterial vaginosis (sp) and a yeast infection....the doctor said it was due to my job haveing to do with me being in a pool for an extended period of time multiple times a week....aparently chlorien can throw everything off kilter

Vaginitous ??
shit, I thoght that was something I made up.
I often accuse friends and buddies of having a bad case of it. I meant it to mean that they wer being big fucking girls and have used the tearm mangina to describe thier private areas.
Guess Ill have to go back to calling them big pussys since my word for that has a true meaning. -
ha thats funny
