Wet vagina

It has been 5 mths since my surgery. I was told I would be drier in the panties and in the vagina area. I have seen no change. I am still wet and still have to wear a panty liner sometimes. I also have a slight order sometime. What is this?

I never have an order - unless I eat or drink something that is naturally strong - like garlic or I over do it on coffee. However, I too have this wetness. For me, I think it's hormones trying to level out. It's very distracting and makes me uncomfortable in public settings. And (sorry if TMI) it makes sex awkward.

I dont have an odor unless i eat a lot of protein (I figured that out by a process of elimination) but im ALWAYS wet. I notice it after I exercise the most. It doesnt bother me that much as long as its not urine (tmi sorry!!) which my dr asked me to check for.

Im thinking that once I can have sex, it'll be a good thing! Maybe we wont have to use lube. In the meantime, I wear a liner when I workout now. Just one of those things I guess.

It could be bacterial vaginosis. If it is, you'll need to see a doctor. The treatment is antibiotics. Take care.

I will find out. I just wish it was a little drier. Sometimes I think it is my bladder linking.

it could be your bladder. Then you can just do kegels to help strengthen your muscles down there. Thats what my dr told me if I start to leak urine. And honestly...I think if you had bacteria vaginosis, you'd know. It has a strong odor! But never hurts to call your dr and have a culture done

Thanks SO Much!

without sounding like TMI, i have always been a little on the 'moist' side. and i thought after surgery i would be a little drier as well. but i think im about the same. i do have a little wetness during the day but gave up panty liners after surgery. i have been checked for all types of infections, even recently, but theres nothing wrong. i guess its just the way i am. altho, when i am in 'a turned on mood' it does seem to get a little ridiculous....but oh well....

Just a quick note...I had bacterial vaginosis (pre-op) and had no odor, just some extra discharge. My doctor told me that's what it was during an exam. It went away after a course of flagyl.

Oh! I've had it twice and I KNEW it lol! it was unmistakeable. I would hope that just being wet wouldnt mean you have bv because I'd always have it.

I guess the best thing for her is to see her dr.
