TOPIC: cervicitis

7 years, 2 months ago #24807

cervicitis

I have seen 2 gyns since January and I would say had about a dozen visits. I had iunprotected intercourse with a new partner(boyfriend) Janruary 1st 2005. A few days later I thought i had the beginning stages of a yeast infection. Foul thick white discharge and chronic itching is what i experienced for two weeks. My gyn prescribed me metrogel but it didnt work. The she gave me diflucon and some other internal cream. Then a few days later the symptoms stopped. So i had what i thought was an episode of yeast. Also, I was on the pill and i thought it was causing the tingling feelings and slight itching i felt. She changed my prescription from othra-evra to yasmin. She didnt do a pap because i had just had a normal pap in June of 2004. She did a blood test for stds and they came back negative. This tingling/itching continued, it was very mild and finally i decided to see another gyn. She did a visual exam and saw nothing unusual, again I was told it was probably a yeast infection. I saw her again after using gynezol which did nothing for me, she did a pap smear and tests for bacterial infections. I was diagnosed with HPV high risk type becaues my pap came back abnormal.She did the exam to see if i had warts, but there were none. She prescibed me doxycyline and I took it twice a day for 10 days and for once the tingling and itching stopped completely. I was so happy. She did a colposcoby that day also and I got the results Thursday of last week. She said it was good news that i had chronic cervicitis because i was expecting her to say i had precancerous cell growth or something of that nature. She said if it came back again to use Clindisse she gave me a prescription and I asked what i should do about my boyfriend adn she said i shouldnt bother mentioning it to him and that there was nothing we could even if he had cervicitis. I researched online and it says both partners should be treated for it so i dont get reinfected again. The same day, being foolish, i had intercourse unprotected with my boyfriend. I mean the Gyn said nothing could be done and am i supposed to have protected sex while I'm in a long term relationship? Well , I believe I have reinfected myself because the next day i began to feel tingling again and slight itching. I finished the doxycyline 2 days after but i guess it didnt cure the re-infection.<BR>The other day I noticed again a thick white foul discharge, I had painful lower stomache pains and when i sat down, they hurt. I took midol which helped, I dont expect my period for 2 weeks so I dont know if these were cramps or pains from cervicitis. i also feel itchy in my anal area, and I dont know if this is from cervisitis in the anal area, if thats even possible. I dont know what to do at this point, how does this cervisitis go away, and how do i know when it is cured? does my boyfriend need to be treated for it? If i had been treated for it in january when i first had the symptoms, would it not be a chronic cervisitis now? The gyn never mentioned the word dysplasia to me but do i have it anyway? I stopped the pill, is it safe to take it when it can cause cervical cancer? The 2nd gyn said it take about 2 years and the hpv will cure itself and i'll be okay. What does she mean and is she right? But if my boyfriend has HPV too which i am pretty sure i got from him, every time we have sex, I'll be exposed to it again. How does this all affect childbirth one day, I am only 20 years old now. When should i consider surgery for cervicitis? Also, once a woman is exposed to cervisitis or high risk hpv, how long til you feel symptoms? <BR>

Re: cervicitis

I just found out that I had cervicitis, which I have never heard of. My symtom's were different even the Dr was tripping out. I just woke up with sever pain down there felt like someone was slicing me down there with a knife. I was using the bathroom more, but never had any discharge or anything and the Dr said that is usally the symtoms they have, and maybe also some odor. He never said anything about treating my partner though. He ordered pills and vaginal cream for me.
