Question: Hello, I am 35 years old with a partial hysterectomy and I still have my cervix. I don't have my uterus. I constantly have problems with Bacteria Vaginosis. Docs give me meds but it keep coming back. Also, every time I get sexually arouse I have lower back pain and I feel pressure on my vagina. Doc says I have cyst on ovaries but they suppose to b harmless...please help me...I don't have a sex life at all....
Brief Answer:
Ovarian cysts
Detailed Answer:
Hi
I read your query and I understand your concerns about back pain and bacterial vaginosis.
The most possible reason for this pain is likely to be ovarian cysts and not cervix.
Hence I presume ovarian cyst is likely to be causing this pain. There is associated pelvic inflammation causing constant bacterial vaginosis. Get vaginal swab culture and sensitivity test done to know which medicine is suitable for treating your infection.

Brief Answer:
Culture and sensitivity needed
Detailed Answer:
Hi
I would perform a culture and sensitivity test. This needs to be evaluated by culture and sensitivity test by taking a swab of discharge. This is simple test. Discuss with the treating doctor. The right treatment shall be planned based on the results of this test.
