Should Antibiotics Be Administered For The Fishy Odour Discharge?
just getting over my period and my boyfriend and I had sex 2 days ago and I experienced a fishy odor.....went to the doctor today, and she swabbed me and thinks it's BV.....she sent a culture out. Should I wait for the culture results before treating with antibiotics?

Hi,
The report will come after 72 hours showing the infective organism present inside and to which these organism are sensitive . So if you start a drug randomly at this stage then there are chance of superinfection , resistance , side effect of irrational drug used,..etc.
so in my opinion start drug according to swan cs report .
Thanks n regards
