A few weeks ago, I'd say 3 I went to the doctor and ended up finding out I had a yeast & bacterial infection, first one ever. The doctor gave me one pill to take for the yeast infection and then a set of pills to take twice a day for a week for hte bacterial infection and I did that. Well things seemed to be getting better and then I ended up getting my period. So a week passed and then I ended up getting the same signs of the yeast or bacterial infection, or both. I'm guessing it hasn't gone away so I took another pill for the yeast infection, I had one refill on that one. Well it's been about 5 days since I took that and things haven't seemed to gotten better. I'm still getting the greenish discharge and still itching a bit. Do you think I should wait to see if it starts getting better or do you think I should go into the doctor again? I am suppose to be getting my period in about a week so I'm not sure whether to wait or not..
Also, just a question. Would it be bad for me to have sex now? Not knowing if the infection cleared up or not, even if we did use a condom?

You want to be sure that you get them completely cleared up and do NOT have sex unless you are positive that you are clear of both of the infections and the only way to do that is to go and speak with your doctor and he/she will check everything out.
Hope I Helped :) [ cloudy_conscience's advice column | Ask cloudy_conscience A Question ]
