Question 1

how long do it take cervicitis to cure when taking medication?

Accepted Answer

Depends: It depends on what is causing the cervicitis.  More information is needed to answer this properly.

Question 2

can bv last for 2 months without going away with medication? what should i do? been tested & treated for yeast,trich,chlamyd, cervicitis, & gonnarea

Accepted Answer

Bacterial vaginosis: Sounds like you have been treated completely for all the usual suspects     BV is linked to an imbalance between "good" bacteria and "bad" bacteria in the vagina.  So - to answer you - yes it can last for a while and resolve on its own assuming the "bacterial harmony" of the vagina is restored.  I suspect one of the meds you took finally did the trick.

Question 3

is there anything i can get from the grocery store or drug store for my cervicitis until i can see a doctor?

Accepted Answer

First, see a doctor: It may not be cervicitis, but a host of other conditions. See a gyn doctor first before trying "grocery or drug store" remedies.

Question 4

how's cervicitis cured?

Accepted Answer

Treat cause/depends.: It is very hard to say if this is cured, especially with the major causes of gonorrhea and chlamydia.  If these are the causes, treatment is with the appropriate antibiotics.  If the cause is not infectious, like an iud, removal should help.  If it's from allergic reaction to spermicides, etc. These should be avoided or tapered, or a different brand used.  Even with abx rx. This can persist.

Question 5

how is cervicitis detected?

Accepted Answer

Testing: Cervicitis may be detected by culture or biopsy of the cervix.

Question 6
