Talk to experienced gynaecologist online and get your health questions answered in just 5 minutes.
When a first course of treatment doesn't fully clear an infection, the right next step is confirming exactly what's growing and what it's sensitive to, not simply repeating or escalating the same medicines.
Next Steps
Ask for a repeat vaginal swab with a sensitivity report and take it to your gynaecologist in person before starting anything new.
Health Tips
Please don't self-select a stronger antibiotic without that report guiding it.
