OMG.. ladies.. Metro Gel is used topically for Rosacea! Please be careful.

[nygirl]

Sassy I don't think using the silver for 5 days would actually turn anyones skin gray I think those studies that say that is as with anything, prolonged use will have some side effects. I'm sure prolonged use of silver will turn your skin gray.

And I used it everyday for 5 days and have not had any signs of the BV yet but like I said who knows how long this will last and what worked for one may not work for the next.

And just a question about Boric Acid. Is this the same boric acid that is used to kill roaches? Now that is something I would be more worried about putting in my body than tetrasil.

I ordered Metro Gel online without a prescription. Took like a month and a half to get here. It did not come with an applicator, so go buy one. Also, I'm interested in the Vitamin C. I did research online but can't find anywhere to buy it so that it can used vaginally. Any Ideas?? Oh, and as far as the Tetrasil, it didn't do anything for me, but I also didn't try using a tampon to put it "up" there. I don't have periods, so, I don't have tampons, besides, tampons carry asbestos, therefore, I wouldn't want to but that up my already agrivated Kitty. lol

[sassy]

Oh, and correct me if I'm wrong about this, but isn't tetrasil made from silver? There are dangers about using silver inside your body. It can actually turn your skin gray.

[sassy]

Just to warn you guys...I think lots of girls on here already tried tetrasil and it only worked when you used the product every single day...or it stopped working all together. I'm glad it worked for nygirl...but it didn't for a lot of girls on here. Be careful.

[honey]

Can someone tell me how you use Tetrasil and where to buy? Thank's

[parisienne]

well, my experimentation with the TTO worked very well for the first two days, but after that (like most things with my BV), I guess my body became "immune" to it... so now it's no longer effective. I guess that Tetrasil is next....

[light_bright]

just curious, is anyone interested in the vitamin c deal? i've been lurking and no one has responded about that yet....

Why don't you try Tetrasil

Piper

Why don't you try Tetrasil

[scared]

I check negative for BV but I still Smell. I am trying Clindeesse tonight If that does not work I will Try the Tetrasil I did not want to try it because all my testes was negative but I should at least test out what I recommend. Wish me luck.

[scared]

I am glad to see that the Tetrasil work for you. Good luck.

Well Ladies I have GREAT news to report. I wanted to wait a week just to see how things were going. But whoever it was that recommended the Tetrasil I owe u SOOOOO much. I ordered it online from their website. I think it was like 20 something dollars. Someone on here said it was very messy but I did not find that AT ALL. It comes in a tube and I waited until I had my period to use it because I figured that was already messy so the tetrasil couldn't have been worse than that. Well every time I changed my tampon I squeezed some tetrasil from the tube on top of the plastic tampon applicator to kind of fill up the tip of it. I then inserted the tampon as normal. Well My period ended on Monday and I have had ONE count this ONE day of discharge and I believe that was just my normal discharge that I usually have. Today I have been out all day long and don't even have a pantyliner on!!! I have NEVER been without a pantyliner one day since I was about 15 years old because I usually have a lot of discharge even without the BV. I am now 32yrs old. Well anyway I don't know how long this is going to last but I can say right now I am SOOOOO happy with these results. I have had sex twice this week and still nothing. But I am now using condoms. I will REFUSE to have sex without a condom anymore because this is what caused this in the first place.

Well ladies I'm not sure how many of you have tried tetrasil but it worked for me so far. I am also going to continue to take the acidophilus everyday though. Good Luck!

[quietmadness]

Has anyone here ever ordered Metro Gel online without a prescription before? Did you actually GET the medicine?
I'm ready to order, but I'd like a little reassurance from someone, first!
Please, no advice on "not" using prescription meds or douches...to each their own, I reckon!
Thanks!

Hello! I'm new to the forum and I could use some advice on antibiotics. I have done everything but that. I also wondered if anyone has used boric acid as a treatment. I am so irritated w/this whole ordeal. I can't believe that there is a spot to gripe about this

[sassy]

Yeah, thats what I thought they would be, jewels. Ugh, that tindazole was bad stuff for you. Yikes. I'm on amoxilcillan for an ear infection right now and it's giving me really bad stomach problems just like the flagyl does to me.

I really hate being a girl..........I wish I had a penis sometimes.

[jewelscando]

I did research on what the doctor prescribed Shansan77. It is all the same med's that we have all taken, just fancier names. Like for example, Fasigyn is Tindazole, the stuff I had to order online, gave me horrible headaches and can cause Seizures. And it's the 4 pills, once. Took B.V. away every other time I used it.VIBRATAB is a STRONG antibiotic used mostly for Acne. Causes severe side effects. Again, take the antibiotic if that is what you want to do, but if you do not use preventative maintenance, you will be in the same "Fishing" boat as all of us. My first time having b.v., it went away and stayed away for 5 or 6 yrs. Now, it's a never ending battle.

[neverending]

surfgirl:I hate to say it but a lot of us has tried everything but it still comes back.I hope you won't go through hell like we do.

[sassy]

surfgirl...we have all had COUNTLESS prescriptions. BV comes back regardless. I hope yours will not, but it has not been the case for the ladies on this board.

[surfgirl]

I have some sort of idea what caused my BV, but am not 100% sure. About 1 year ago I had just been through a year of unprotected sex with my boyfriend when we noticed a cottage cheese like discharge when he pulled out. I'm not sure it was the sex that did it, because it took a year for this symptom to even show itself.
A few days after we noticed the discharge, I started itching and drying out. It was SO irritating, but I thought it would go away on its own. WRONG.
A few months later the itch was gone, but the discharge was still rearing its ugly head, so I treated myself with a yeast infection and took Monistat, which of course did absolutely nothing but cause annoyance at the goop constantly coming out of me.
A few months later the cottage cheesy discharge turned watery and accompanied a smell that could wake the dead. That was when I said enough is enough. I can deal with a little discharge, but that smell wasnt something i'd even wish upon an enemy.
I went to the gynecologist who tested me for yeast. negative. STDs. also negative. So she said "it must be BV" and gave me a prescription for metro-gel vaginal.
The odor cleared up that same day and the discharge is gone. I just finished my last treatment 2 days ago and suffer from a little bit of itching and dryness and some "wet tissue paper" like discharge/residue. I was a little freaked about this but found a forum dedicated to women who found this discharge and turns out its a very common thing with metro-gel. So now I wait and see, but so far so good.
Ladies I HIGHLY suggest you just go see your doctor and let them fill in a prescription for you. I wish I had done it MONTHS ago and saved myself a lot of embarassment.
