Hello,
I suggest you to get a vaginal swab for culture and drug sensitivity. After getting the test done, you can start with broad spectrum anti-microbial treatment after prescription from your gynecologist. In the meanwhile, you are suggested to practice safe sex only to avoid spread of infection.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
