A member asked:
My friend had a bacterial infection in her vagina. she took doxycycline for 10 days and she's having yellowish running out of the vagina.

See your doctor: Doxycycline is usually used to treat infections involving the cervix and upper genital tract. It is not a good treatment overall for bacterial infections of the vagina. It is possible that a lower genital tract (vagina) infection is related to the discharge, especially if odor is involved.
