I have bacterial vaginosis and i am on some kinda med?!


Question: I have bacterial vaginosis and i am on some kinda med!?
im pretty sure its an anti-biotic!.!.
my doctor told me that i might get a yeast infection from the anti-biotics anyways i think im getting a yeast infection and i want to stop taking the med because 1!. i cannot swallow the pill[due to a large -not- removable retainer at the roof of my mouth] & it takes far too much space!.!.!.I keep chocking on it and throwing up!. 2!. headaches and tired from it!. and 3!. i think i have a yeast infection!.!.

QUESTION IS : what else can i do to make it go away!? Will anything bad happen apart from not get better [it already is kinda] if i dont take them !?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
You need to complete the medication! Untreated, it might lead to pelvic inflammatory disease, not to mention making you highly uncomfortable! The medication also comes in a form that can be given vaginally (ick, I know, but it works) so I would call your doctor and have him call that in for you and ask him to call in oral fluconazole so that you treat the yeast, too! Good luck!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

If you've been prescribed antibiotics you need to take the entire course of pills!. If they're too large, cut them in half and take the smaller bits!.

If you are sexually active you need to see a doctor for what's going on in your vagina!. If you've had yeast infections before and you're sure that's what it is, go to the pharmacy and get some antifungal!. The generic store brand 1 dose treatment will probably be $10 or so!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

go back to your doctor and see if she can give you something else!.

can you break the pill to make it easier to swallow!?
