Antibiotic post HSG causing diarrhoea
Hello, Doctors! I have recently done HSG and the doctor has prescribed doxycycline for 7 days post HSG to prevent any infection. However, I have antibiotic-induced stomach upset. I have taken Sporalac DS along with Doxycycline, but it doesn't seem to help. Shoul I stop the antibiotic? It's been 2 days post HSG.
