Unprotected Sex, Having Delayed Periods, Milky Vaginal Discharge. Taking Cephalexin. History Of Staph Infection. Cure?
17 - female - 160cm - 47kg - had a recent staph infection was on an iv antibiotic drip for 4 days - have been on cephalexin 500mg 4 tablets a day since tuesday 26 days late for period - had unprotected sex - no symptoms other than a lot of milky odourless discharge and now what looks like toilet paper type skin peeling off labia (peeling skin only started today)
Usually this type of discharge indicates yeast infection.In which due to dryness and itching you will have peeling of skin.But as your missing period also that might be normal and that too you have unprotected sex so you need to take HPT.If the results are negative then consult your doctor for the correct treatment.They may give you antifungal treatment.Thank you.
