What Do Delayed Periods While Recovering From Bacterial Vaginosis Indicate?
Hello , the first day of my last period was June 24 . I had Bacterial V (BV ). And I took the medicine twice I now it says 5 days at bed time but it also says it can go away on its own and tonight I was going to start over I have been sexually active I kno its stupid but he been pulling out I honestly do not think I am pregnant but my period is never late it comes when it supposed to. The other night we tried to have sex but I was experiencing some cramping now since I started my period I never had period cramps before and I was in so much pain my discharge has been yellow and clear but it looks i blew my nose. I took a P test the other day and it said negative not sure if I tested too early or if having BV caused my period not too come what should I do now tonight I went to the bathroom to pee and wipe and there is discharge with light pink

Hi,
You can wait for a week more for your periods to return. Recent stress, new medications, nutritional deficiency may cause delay in periods. Pregnancy should also be ruled out. After your antibiotic course has been finished and the infection is cleared, you may need hormonal pills to initiate periods. This is to be done after discussing with your gynecologist.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
