So i went to the Health Dept. Last week and they said I had BV. (Bacterial Vaginitis) I know that it is completely normal and can happen as easily as a yeast infection.
They told me it is not an STI so I dont understand why with the antibiotic Metronidazole it will not go away. I mean I still have a discharge and its been 1 week on the pills.
What could be the problem?
I have an appt tommorrow but I am expierencing some pain in my stomach.
It is possible you may have to take it a little longer or the doctor may give you something totally
different. It would be the same for any infection.
So don't worry about it. The diagnosis won't change,
but the antibiotic might. :) [ karenR's advice column | Ask karenR A Question ]
