I started at the end of June. And I started having symptoms during sex similar to the only time i have had yeast infection...never made the connection either - glad I'm not the only one. I also had the burning, really really painful feelings during and after sex and it burned so bad when I had to use the bathroom. Sometimes I was nearly in tears. I just chalked it up to us having sex so much. (we were newlyweds and living together full time for the first time) Now I wonder if it wasn't the ring, but I'll have to wait til May to find out cuz he is deployed! :P :( Definitely not going and refilling the prescription though I don't think - and will definitely be making a doctor's appointment with a good gyn to find out my alternatives (like some of y'all I have a finicky body when it comes to hormones)
