Chronic vaginal burning/itching for 10+ months thought CV last results AV
Hi everyone,
I’m a 28-year-old woman and I’m hoping someone has experienced something similar.
Here’s my timeline:
July 4, 2025: Miscarriage.
August 2: Started taking FertyBiotic. (Has probiotics)
August 13–20: First period after the miscarriage.
August 26: Switched to Ovosicare Profiv (stopped it the next day). Around this time I started feeling vaginal discomfort.
August 27: Went to the ER because the burning became unbearable. I was prescribed sertaconazole.
After the first dose I felt better for one day, but then everything got much worse. I developed:
low-grade fever,
intense itching all over my body,
shaking/trembling,
severe vaginal burning.
Since then I’ve tried:
Sertaconazole
Fenticonazole
Clotrimazole
Dequalinium chloride (Fluomizin)
Oral fluconazole
Some treatments made me significantly worse, while Fluomizin and fluconazole made things only slightly more tolerable.
I’ve now had symptoms for about 10 months.
Symptoms
Persistent vaginal burning/itching.
Thin, watery discharge that is mostly clear but has a slight yellow-green tint.
My vagina looks completely normal on examination according to multiple gynecologists.
Pelvic ultrasounds have all been normal.
My symptoms improve dramatically during my period.
Treatments/products
Helped:
Laifemedia
Ginocanesten Bacterial Vaginosis gel
Palomacare
Sodium bicarbonate (used on June 16, 17 and 19, 2026) helped a little.
Made me worse:
ISDIN vaginal ovules
ISDIN vaginal moisturizer
CLX vaginal ovules
Cumlaude Lubripiù
Vaginal culture (19 May 2026)
Numerous epithelial cells
Rare leukocytes
Numerous Gram-positive bacilli
Normal vaginal flora on culture
Negative for fungi
Negative for parasites (they thought I had CV)
Fresh wet mount (July 2, 2026)
Lactobacillary grade III
Background microbiota: bacilli
No inflammation
No toxic PMNs
No hyphae
No blastospores
No clue cells
No parabasal cells
No cytolysis
Conclusion: Mild aerobic vaginitis.
My gynecologist has now prescribed Fluomizin for 12 days, followed by maintenance therapy twice a week for 3 months, and also sent another sample for fungal testing.
Has anyone experienced something similar after a miscarriage? Does this sound like aerobic vaginitis, or did your diagnosis end up being something else? I’m especially interested in hearing from people whose symptoms improved during menstruation.
