A member asked:
Hello, which anibiotic is best suited for the treatment of vaginitis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends on the cause: Vaginitis is a symptom, not a discrete disease. There are a number of different bugs that can be causing the symptoms (usually itching, discharge, foul smell, occasionally pain/burning with urination, etc). It is important to get examined to make sure you are getting treated for the right bug. Sometimes, tests may be required to confirm the diagnosis as well.
