pee or watery discharge??????

I hope someone can shed some light on my confusion! I have been waking up for the past week with what I finally came to believe was urine...I got in to see my Dr. about it today. He took a look and told me that I had some discharge that was somewhat strong in odor, and some granulation. He prescribed some metrogel that I am to use for five days to see if it (the leakage/discharge) goes away. I told him of my concerns of fistula, which he said he did not think it was because He said i would have leakage all the time, not just overnight. Please help me understand what is going on with my body.

Kimi:

Did your dr. say that he suspected an infection ? Reason i ask is because i had a mild infection at 4 wks. post-op & my gyn had me use the metrogel for it. So maybe he is trying to rule out an infection first. I am not a dr. so i am just guessing here.
Maybe you could call your drs. office tommorrow & ask if that is what its for. And ask if there is anything else he suspects. Wouldnt hurt to call, maybe they could explain it a little better for you.
Another thing, when i had my infection i also had a really bad yeast infection also. They gave me Diflucan for the yeast infection.
Let us know what you find out & how you are doing. 's

Kimi..I just had BV (bacterial vaginosis). My discharge was similar to what yours is. I wasn't sure if it was urine or discharge. I did have it through the day also and I had to wear a Light Days pad. On the pad the discharge appeared yellow. My doctor gave me Metrogel also and it did clear up.

Hope you feel better soon!

i did ask about infection and he said no, i didn't have an infection but it was an overgrowth of bacteria.

Hi Kimi,
I had a very slight infection one week post op and was prescribed the metrogel as well. I used the gel for 5 days and I still discharged up until 5 weeks post op. My discharge was very watery ( I thought it was urine as well) and then a very slight "tan" color. It has completly stopped now at 6 weeks.
Yeah!! No more panti liners!
