Fishy smell and pelvic pain....could it be an STI?!
Question: Fishy smell and pelvic pain!.!.!.!.could it be an STI!?
I have had a smelly discharge for a while now, it's nothing out of the ordinary for me and it isn't thick or yellowish (sorry to much)!. My periods are really heavy and painful but when i am off my period i get a very uncomfortable feeling in my pelvic area and sometimes a throbbing pain on my right side!. I am going for a smear tomorrow and i know the doctor said he wants to take a few samples and get them tested!. Has anyone experienced these symptoms before, i am getting quite worried, and only sensible answers please!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Sounds like bacterial vaginosis, which is not a sexually transmitted infection, but occurs when the pH value of the vagina gets out of whack, and allows an overgrowth of certain bacteria!. This causes an excess of smelly discharge, which often has a fishy offensive smell to it!. It's often made worse by sex, and you may notice the smell more directly after sex!. If left untreated for a while it can cause pelvic inflammatory disease, which could be the cause of your pelvic pain!. It's easily treated with a course of antibiotics!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Stop using tampons they cause this type of thing you are talking about especially if you do not hacnge them at least three times a day!.
You could also have a pelvic infection caused by tampons that if left untreated could lead to infertility!.
It's good that you are having this checked out and hopefully I'm wrong about the infection and that it is jsut a bad case of thrush which anyone can catch!. But do heed my warning about tampons!. Even if you use them during the day only and revert to panty towels at night this will stop most infections!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I know that you feel scared, but the doctor will be able to help you wiht what he thinks is going on!. It could possibly be an STI, but instead of getting yourself worried, let the doctor do his tests!. It could just be as simple as a yeast infection or something like that!. Don't jump to any conclusions before the doctor mentions it, or you could just really worry yourself!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
i had something similar to this a few years ago but was too embarrassed to go to the doc`s!. when i did finally go i had a smear and some samples sent off and it was only an infection a bit like thrush but higher up in the womb, its not passed on by sex and cannot be passed on so don't worry,(if it is the same as what i had)
a course of antibiotics did the trick but because of it i had to go for a smear 6 months later then a year later then a year after, just to make sure it was gone!.
don't worry im sure you`ll be fine xxWww@Answer-Health@Com
