A member asked:

I had foul smelling discharge and genital sores the doctor didnt test but prescribed me vaginal gel to clear it and pills what could this possibly be?

Possibilities include bacterial vaginosis, other vaginal infections and herpes infection. If you haven't been examined by a gynecologist or been given a definitive diagnosis by your MD, consult a gynecologist for accurate diagnosis and proper treatment.

I answered your question before. The vaginal gel is likely for bacterial vaginosis and the pill is for herpes simplex 2 infection. Can you tell us the names of your medications which I asked in the previous response. Take care and practice safe sex, please.

Next time if an MD prescribes medicine without exam , insist on exam or a plausible explanation for avoiding an exam.
