Vaginal white discharge tested negative thrush
« on: January 14, 2025, 08:24:19 PM »

Hi Ladies.
I'm on 100mcg patch and mirena.
Imvaggis pessaries.
Symptoms peeing a lot and tenderness above the pubic bone which is bladder. I'm not diabetic
I have lots of white vaginal discharge, GP was convinced it was thrush. The hospital cannot grow it. Any idea what could be causing white discharge, it does not smell. Could it be too oestrogen. It's a mystery as it comes and goes and perhaps the bladder is irritated. Thank you.

Vaginal atrophy: if U are using internal treatment, what goes up has to come down.  Do U find that Imvaggis pessaries help at all?

MayB switch to Vagifem ........... also use the VA treatment every night for the next 2 weeks which should ease symptoms.

Could it be related to the pessaries?

Some pessaries leave a residue.

Also estrogen itself increases physiological discharge - this is normal however it can seem excessive if someone has been used to hypoestrogenic conditions.

White discharge is normal. If it doesn't smell or irritate it'll be a combination of your own lubrication and the residue of the local estrogen.

Thanks All.
The bladder seems irritated and the Vagina feels sore but the discharge doesn't smell and might be related to oestrogen products. I'll try the imvaggis for two weeks and see if helps.
