A member asked:

I have vaginal irritation, discharge i can see inside & pain below my bellybutton. i took metrogel or bv & flucanzazole for precaution what's the prob?

See gynecologist: You and the discharge need to be examined to clearly establish a diagnosis. This cannot be done over the internet. Go see someone and get managed appropriately. Good luck.
