Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Based on the report you have enclosed, it is clearly stating that you have bacterial infection of the vagina and this is the cause for your itching of vagina and vaginal discharge.
Since you are pregnant and only few medications can be used safely to treat such conditions, kindly consult Gynecologist promptly with the report for further course of management.
Maintain good personal hygiene.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
Regards,
