Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Recurring Infection Of Vaginitis Post Intercourse?
my boyfriend is uncircumcised, every time we have unprotected sex I get a bacteria vaginitis. He also have a fishy odor when he pre ejaculate also his pee hole smell fishy as well. I haven't had a STD, but I keep getting bacteria vaginitis. What are these symptoms?
I have gone through your question and I will try my best to give a satisfactory answer. You seem to be suffering from Vaginitis. If I was your treating physician I would perform a vaginal swab culture and urine culture first of all to reach the confirm diagnosis and its type.....it may be either of three ( bacterial, fungal or trichomoniasis). then my treatment plan would be according to the culture reports. As you have mentioned that you have already taken treatment for vaginitis, i would suggest that you now consult your gynecologist for further treatment as excessive use of all drugs will make the causative organism resistant which will make it even harder to cure. Some types of vaginitis may require your boyfriend to undergo treatment as well to stop the spread of infection, but this can only be determined after finding out the type of disease through culture. The treatment for recurrent infection may require medicines for a longer period of time. Meanwhile take extra care of hygiene of genital area, wear cotton undergarments and frequents changing of tampons.
I hope this answers your question. Please feel free to contact HCM again if you have any concerns. Wishing you good health.
