A member asked:

Is white clumpy discharge normal, when taking metrogel for bv?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Superimposed Yeast: It is not uncommon for people who are treated for BV to develop a yeast infection on the meds. You should be looked at by your gynecologist but I have seen this before.
