Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I am currently not taking any medication. I am 23 years old, 4'11", 115 pounds. There is burning, itching, and passed some discharge, milky like discharge on the inside of labia minora, just thin layers being wiped off, small like cuts or something are there along with redness, burns when I pee too. I was on Ciprofloxacin for UTI about two weeks ago and Fluconazole for yeast infection. I did not finish antibiotic, still have six pills left. I did not take and only took one yeast infection pill instead of two. I just took it again because I started having this problem again after my period ended. However, I have had a new sex partner within that time frame and do not know if I am fine. I bought one of those vaginal infection kits to test and the stick stayed yellow. It never changed blue or green which meant normal acidity. So, should I still worry about STD or does this sound like recurring yeast infection and UTI?
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I have seen the case summary. I think your fungal infection of vagina and UTI (urinary tract infection) are still not resolved as I can see you having so much of fungal infection (attachment removed to protect patient identity) plus you have not taken your antibiotics properly. So get urine routine examination and culture again and get blood sugar fasting also. We can also get a high vaginal swab for culture and sensitivity if the infection is not getting resolved. As you are having recurrent infection plus get your partner tested for semen culture and clinical exam to rule out STD (sexually transmitted disease) as the male partner are usually carrier and do not exhibit symptoms in some infections. Will start antibiotic after the culture report. For vaginal infection use Clotrimazole vaginal pessary daily for seven days. Apply antifungal with steroid combination cream locally to relieve itching and burning of private parts. Just clean your private parts with normal temperature water and do not let it remain wet.
