Itching, feminine powder – can vaginal creams affect getting pregnant?
Since the weather has gotten warmer, I have been using a feminine powder to prevent odor and wetness during and after my period. Well, last night I started experiencing burning and itching. After I went to the bathroom, I noticed a white clumpy ball with traces of blood on the bathroom tissue (I just finished my period on Saturday). This substance continued to come out. Before I went to bed I used a prescription that my gynecologist gave me a few months ago (metronidazole vaginal gel) for a bacterial infection. I should start ovulating in the next 5 or 6 days and my husband and I are trying to have a baby. If this is a yeast infection, will it have any bearing on my ovulation this month? And how can I get rid of, and prevent another infection?
