What Are The Symptoms And Treatment For Gardnerella Vaginalis?
I m having a tonsillectomy in 3 days. I think I have Gardnerella. I ve had it before and am having the same symptoms. I m going to the doctor tomorrow to get the antibiotics. Will this put my surgery in jeopardy or will it be ok that I ve taken the medication?

Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
Gardenerella infection where? It would cause a mild vaginitis and has no relation to Tonsil and it is not a contraindication for Tonsillectomy or it won't produce any complication for the same.
Except that of a very mild vaginal discharge and a fishy smell during intercourse, it would produce much symptoms.
