Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Presence of numerous polymorphs with gram positive bacilli indicates infection, and you have to take antibiotics for it.

My suggestion is please consult gynecologist for antibiotic and its course.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
