Vaginosis
Posted: 11-12-03 23:20pm

Is it possible for a man and womens semen or whatever its called to not be able to mix properly and cause this disease? That the girl is telling me her doctor said. I looked it up and it says nothing about that. I know she had a yeast infection before it went to this. The one thing it does say is that it can be caused from multiple partners......Think she's cheatin.....Hmmm

It is my understanding that it most commonly occurs in woman with a new or multiple sex partners.

I think you have reason to be suspicious of what your friend told you the doctor said.

She said the doctor said that the semen and her fluids did not mix properly and caused a bacterial infection.....That could be possible too? Because when I ask her if she's cheated she says no. I dont know when she could of even. But if she has, I just want to know so I can, can her ass.

You think your girlfriend is cheating? Well there are many things that can cause an infection starting from tampons or to where you are having sex. It can be from a new sex partner or something else. If she said shes not cheating then you can either believe her, or not. Have you looked it under womens conditions?

I'm not saying that she is not cheatin, but vaginosis is a very common infection. It is more common than a yeast infection. Women can get it from tampons, baths, bubble baths, and many other ways. Like, if you finger her and you have bacteria on your finger, she can develop an infection. She could even get it if the cotton part of her underwear that is right by her crotch is dyed. So, don't just jump the gun. Even women who are not sexually active can get vaginosos.

Don't Accuse Her Just Yet......

This condition can stem from many other areas than simply a cheating partner, just as it can also be called many other names. I personally experienced a form of vaginosis called gardnerella. (i am 18w5d pg). This form of vaginosis as with many others is caused by an abnormal balance of bacteria in the vagina. This, like nikki said, can be caused from everything from tampons, to a serious, untreated yeast infection, to a soap that irritates the genetalia. Also a sudden swing in hormones can drastically affect this aspect of the female system.
So don't jump to the conclusion that this was caused by a cheating gf...It could be many another thing. Exclamation

Hey



what she has almost all women have it... Its is a natural bacteria ... It can get out of control and cause problems... But almost every women has it...So to go and presume she has been unfaithful is very stupid.... Make sure you know all the facts before jumping to conclusions
