YOU WROTE:
List of other diseases, conditions, or
injuries and their treatment:
Endometriosis
Current medical status: Smelly "down
there". Do not know if it is vaginal or
anal.
Current medical treatment: Doctors keep
putting me on anti biotics (Cyplox) that
works like a bomb, but when I'm finished
with them, the problem comes back. My
gynecologist gave me a cream that's
suppose to restore the PH balance in your
vagina. It seemed to have worked for about
a week only and gave me a yeast infection.
(As does the cyploxx)
You'll need to request a microbiological
examination that includes a vaginal smear.
A PAP-smear is not an appropriate
diagnostic tool for detecting vaginal
infections. Microbiological examinations
test for vaginal infections and
disturbance in the vaginal flora.
Furthermore, Cyplox is a large spectral
antibiotic that can disturb the balance of
the vaginal flora. A yeast infection can
be due to the Cyplox. Other infections may
also be present in combination with the
yeast infection. Finally, you can wash
your vagina but you can’t wash your
uterus because that is technically not
possible.
