It's been about 4 weeks and I believe its come back is there any certain reason this could be happening again? Should I toss out any undergarments I wore before even after making sure to wash them all and purchase new ones ??
Avatar f tn I've been having problems with my body since the end of June. I was first diagnosed with a yeast infection.. took medication and it wouldnt go away. Then two weeks ago I went and got a pap smear and was diagnosed with bacterial vaginosis. I've taken my 7 day antibiotics and nothing has cleared up.. I think it has gotten worse. I've been having cramps, frequent urination, cloudy dark yellow urine. Why is it taking me this long to get better? What else do I have to do?
Avatar n tn Also, if you are still having sex with someone who has not had any antibiotics, you should ask about having your partner get a prescription also.
