A member asked:
Enterococcus species found on vaginal swab, what should i do? i am 16 weeks pregnant and having lots of white discharge.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not to worry: Enterococcus is commonly found in the GI tract; the growth on the swab is not surprising and is likely due to "spill over" from fecal flora from the anus.B you should not worry about this. The more important question is the presence of group b strept, which is associated with increased risk of complications of pregnancy.
