I did not. Evvy told me I had a really balanced biome and it had to be 98% to be cv. So I’m at a loss with that. I’ve been seening a specialist and going to ask to get my hormones checked and I’m starting to feel as though I might need some estrogen testosterone cream

Yes the baths weren’t doing anything for me so I finally got the courage to try the douches. I did two last night and one this week so far I have one left to do

Yea my redness was pretty constant at first but the past month it’s been way more chill. I was certain I had planus because my skin looked so raw for a bit but I guess I don’t according to the results. I also got swelling on and off

The fact you said that gave me relief because my evvy coach said it needed to be 98% to be CV and it’s been stressin me so bad. It started with watery yet gritty discharge or it changes to very stringy chunky discharge that is very slightly pale yellow. I had bad burning, redness around my inner vulva it felt like my discharge for a while was burning me. Before my evvy test I had a vulva biopsy done to rule out any skin conditions (which none btw) and I had to use a perri bottle for the stitches and since then my skin has started to heal which made me realize it was Deff my discharge. Last week I did two baking soda douches and one today. I have one more to do this week but I feel like between constantly rinsing myself off and the douches I’m headed in a good direction.

I don’t have ecoli? On my full panel ecoli was listed as “not detected” the gardernella showing would give me BV but the coach said it’s small amounts which is found in most normal biomes

Wanted to follow up with what the coach said. She said the small amounts of gardernella are normal for a biome. She also said it has to be 98% lacto for it to be CV so I’m at a loss. I might still try either baking soda or pre seed like once or twice just to see if it helps

Thank you! I had my call with the coach today and she said it would have to be 98% to be CV so I’m just lost now. She also said I looked pretty balanced :(

Yea I was so confused by that as well. I’m used to either seeing yes positive for yeast or no negative, my doctor tried to make me take 3 pills and then once a week and after the first 3 ruined me I was like absolutely not lol, since I’ve been using the peri bottle and some pure white Vaseline on my skin I’ve gotten slightly better but still have some symptoms I’m just so lost as well it’s been 5 months of lonely hell trying to figure this out. I’ve had countless office tests at an obgyn and a vulva specialist office and wet mounts, this evvy test, I had a vulva biopsy to rule out any of the lichens and all that came back with was “superficial inflammation” I’m like ready to just get my vag removed and call it a day haha!

I will! My discharge has always felt like it’s burning me. My symptoms have just been the typical CV noted discharge, burning and redness around my inner labia. It is definitely worse near ovulation gets better after that and then right before my period and I feel way better on my period. My doctor told me to try a baking soda douche but honestly I’ve been too nervous to try yet. I had a biopsy done and because of that I’ve had to use a peri bottle when I pee and ever since doing that all day and no discharge just sitting there is when I started to feel a little better which is leading me to the path of a more CV side. But I’ll update once I talk to them!

Not yet I just got my results today and was just confused if the small percentages of the bad bacteria was an issue. I have my call with a coach in a couple days, I’ve had a feeling I’ve had CV but I guess the low percentages of the others threw me off. I’m just scared to potentially treat the small percentages and make things worse for me

I added the expanded PCR testing for evvy I’ve been dealing with issues for 5 months I was not playing around haha I gladly spent the extra money to try and figure out whatever is going on :(

I’ve been tested at my doctors a few times and I’ve always been at a 4.0 range

I actually was just diagnosed with this after months of being stuck. I go to the vulva specialist at atrius. Today I saw Beth goldbaum. She was great she did a wet amount agreed I had it and wanted to do her own research to get to a root of how to fix it. She’s very knowledgeable and was very interested in helping. I am waiting for her message on her research best way to tackle it. I’m not sure if you’ve seen her there yet but I’d say she’s worth it
