Hi,
Thanks for the query. I understand your concern.
You had already taken single dose therapy for chlamydia infection... which usually helps.
The yellow copious vaginal discharge after the medicines.. suggest.. a secondary infection probably caused hy high dose of antibiotic ... which had damaged normal vaginal flora to give chance for fungi/bacteria that recide in the body.
Vaginal swab woulde assess the cure of Chlamydia...&also the organisms causing present complaint.
Use candid vaginal pessaries at night...keep good genital hygiene .If there is no relief..consult a gynecilogist.
Thanks.
