How To Treat Green Vaginal Discharge Caused Due To Yeast Infection?

I am seventy six and have had a yeast infection that will not go away. It was brought on by antibiotics for a UTI infection I had and I was put on antibiotics for six month s. I now have a green discharge and am very concerned about this situation. Please tell me what else I can do. Thank you

Hi
Thank you for asking HCM.
I have gone through your query. Your problem can be due to trichomonas vaginalis infection or bacterial vaginosis. A pelvic examination and swab test should be done to rule out the condition. For such condition I would recommend combination of antibiotics like metronidazole or clindamycin with clotrimazole as vaginal suppository or as oral tablets. Using intimate wash regularly is also good.
Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
