What Causes Recurring Yellow Vaginal Discharge?

I have yellow discharge once or twice a week since one year. I had a vaginal culture and was told that I have klebsiella. Now I am taking ciprobay 500 for 5 days. I did take dalacin before and discharge stops only during The time medicine Is taken. Can I live a normal life in case of discharge reoccurrence? Or I have to treat it?

Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Yellow vaginal discharge what you are having has been proved by vaginal culture that it is caused by an infection from an organism called Klebsiella.
Kindly take the antibiotics what you have started and complete the course prescribed even if the symptoms subside.
Kindly do the following along with it to overcome the same.
1. Cleanse the area with mild antiseptic solution like Savlon twice daily.
2. Wear loose fitting undergarments preferably made of cotton.
3. Abstain from sexual activities till the symptoms subside completely.
4. Drink good quantities of fluids and take Vitamin C along with it.
Maintain good personal hygiene.
Gradually, you should be able to overcome the symptoms and be back to normal.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
Regards,
Dr.Ashakiran.S.,
