Hi Lucy, Yes! I had two BV infections over past 3 months which is when I first got Covid. Literally was running to the bathroom with intense urgency while isolated with other Covid symptoms in my basement! When I was 14 days away from onset of symptoms I saw my gyn and she found I had Gardnerella BV, treated it with metroDidazole, too, but it came back about 6 weeks later and we tried a different cream. Also have been experiencing first time in my 57 years bladder discomfort, on and off. Now my vagina seems totally healthy but I still have the bladder discomfort and lots of mysterious abdominal pain (right side espec.). Doctors suspect interstitial cystitis and I am scheduled for cystoscopy in a week but they never mention Covid connection! Best of luck to you!

Chris, I have Interstitial Cystitis. It's under control now but I still watch my diet. If you're diagnosed with IC, carefully consider your choices of management. I took Elmiron for 15 years and now have eye problems. Look it up.
Good luck,
Lucy
