Recently I had BV, I got treated with metronidazole cream which I used for 5 days, twice daily. 4 days after finishing the medication, I started having the yellow greenish discharge again. (Last time it had no smell but it did itch). I talked to my doctor about it and she said that as long as it did not turn into a dark green color, I should be fine. Sometimes, its more on the greenish side, and sometimes, its more on the yellowish side. (sorry tmi)... anyway, in between, I have clear leukkorhea and no discomfort. It doesn't itch either.
Even though the doctor told me that I was fine I was worried. I talked to my sister and she said that I was fine because she had the same thing going on when she was pregnant and she had no infection. She said its all part of the "wonderful" process of pregnancy.
Anyway, why would my discharge still be yellow-green? is my vagina still clearing up the infection? Its only been two weeks since I finished the medication. I have been trying to figure it out by going on the web but it always says that green can be a sign of infection.I was persistent with the doctor but she did not seem concerned at all . Has anyone else had this? ↓

Honestly, I would ask to be cultured again. Untreated BV infections are linked to premature rupture of the membranes, which can lead to premature birth. It happened to me at 20 weeks (delivery at 23). ↑

I have the same thing from time to time, its like it changes color everyday. But, same as you, I have no itch or smell. My dr hasnt seemed concerned either and I just use a liner. I think maybe prenatal vitamins can change the color of your discharge just as it does your urine and bile (spelling?) ↑

I have bben having the same problem. When I first found out I was pregnant I gto tested for STD's and HIV and all my test was negative. But am still concern, because sometimes it itches and sometimes it smells. My doctor told me just drink lots of water and clear liquid but is it normal? ↑
