Hey peeps, I'm really at a loss here and could use some help as things are starting to feel hopeless for me.
I've been off work since the start of July due to some sexual health concerns. I was with a client who was fingering me, and when he withdrew his fingers, there were these little clumpy specks of discharge on myself and his fingers, very similar to the startings of thrush. The best way I can describe it was like little flecks of toilet paper.
That's chill. I've had thrush a fair few times. Immediately stopped working, got myself a thrush tablet. 7 days later and it hadn't gone, so I contacted my local sexual health clinic.
Went in to do some tests. No thrush or bv, but I had Chlamydia instead.
I messaged all the clients since my last round of tests and got myself treated, hoping that would be the end of it, but nope. I still have these flecks, and random intense abdominal pains now, so booked in with the clinic again.
Again, no thrush, no bv. Nothing at all. I've been there so many times in the last five months I've lost track. Every time I go in, they take a look, tell me I'm healthy, check under the microscope, confirm I'm healthy, and yet I'm still getting these pains and these clumps which stop me from working.
They don't seem to notice the clumps when I go in, but I'm not about to finger myself to find some to show them. However, they're there whenever I give content a go, or when I'm working on content with my duo partner. I've tried proviotics, diet changes, more thrush tablets from the clinic 'just to be safe', BV pessassaries incase it's something to do with my PH balance, and none of it made a difference. I'm terrified at this point that I just won't be able to work. I can't see clients as they'll immediately see the texture and lumps and alarm bells will send then running.
I'm at a complete loss at this point, so if any of you have any ideas or have experienced anything similar, please let me know, or advise me on what I can do next.
This job is my livelihood. I can't work civvie jobs due to mental health issues so escorting is literally the only way I can afford to live a normal, non-poverty-stricken life. And I can feel it slipping away from me but I don't know what I can do about it.
Thanks in advance to all of you x

Hey hey Miffy, I'm 22 x

Oh, interesting, not what I was expecting you to tell me.

It's not discharge. It's not an STI, nor an infection.

What you're experiencing is just a perfectly natural thing although not everyone gets it. Indeed, it took quite a bit of research on my part (and a conversation with a women's health specialist) to understand what it was. It's an accumulation of dead skin cells and possibly symbiotic that your vagina is not getting all the oestrogen it needs and that your hormone levels are off.  You need to ask your GP for a Vagifem suppository which you will need to use daily for two weeks and then bi-weekly. This won't stop the tissue paper like susbstance appearing, but it could make your vagina happier and more resilient. Given your age, I would absolutely suggest asking for a gynae referral or to see a women's health specialist and have them check your hormone levels too.

You will have to be insistent with your GP with this as on the whole, they have zero interest in women's health, particularly women's reproductive health. If you can, go private. Dr Louise Newson would be a good place to start. However, all this said, your hormone levels might well be fine and this is just normal for your body. I find that I notice this most after I pee, so maybe it would be good practise for you to pee before each client.

I don't know what the random intense abdominal pains are, but I am certain they have nothing to do with this.

Hope this helps

I agree with going for a private consultation. I've done this myself.

Could it not also possibly be anal worms? They can lay eggs in the vagina too. Having worms also causes abdominal pain 

Yay Miffy hrt been long term reasonable investment in puss health and happiness! And makes job more fun.

I googled wet toilet paper- hello candida /thrush ! .Overgrowth of yeast.

But it sometimes can cause inflamation and pain. That's concerning so would persist with second opinion. Bacterial vaginosis can cause pain too. I'm no puss professor it could be loads of things check it out with your experts.

 I was borderline thrush it was such a tiny weeny low percentage the nurse said wait to see if it dies out rather than stuff me with remedies. It went away by itself.

Could it  be when you visit the clinic sometimes you have a really low yeast 'count'..is that why they don't see it?

Now off to have a good ol' read about anal worrrrrrms! Thanks yyy123!

I did wonder it it might be candida/an overgrowth of thrush too but I'm fairly certain it is what I think it is and why the various people OP has seen are struggling to diagnose it because it's not really a thing (if that makes sense). Additionally, as OP has already tried thrush treatment with no success. Thrush/candida does feed on sugar though, so it might be worth cutting down on sugar to see if it makes a noticeable difference.

On a related note, there is something call SIBO which is a bacterial overgrowth in the small bowel which can cause abdominal pain. Vaginal thrush can be a symptom too, so that might be worth looking into.

I hope you get to the bottom of this situation, wish you all the best!
