Is Vaginal Bleeding Due To Boric Acid Suppository?
Hi Dr. Rynne! I have been using the Nuvaring for about 2 years. I am scheduled to remove it for one week on Wed, Sept, 20th however I started having some light bleeding mid-day on this past Friday. Earlier in the Week I began using a combination of Boric Acid suppositories and terconazole cream to cure a yeast infection that has been off and on for almost 1 year. I stopped using the boric acid yesterday in fear that could be the reason im bleeding a little. Should I be concerned?

boric acid is corrosive and can not be used as vaginal suppository. consult gynechologist for examination and advise on treatment.
