What Causes Clear Vaginal Discharge While On Antibiotics For UTI?
I went to the urgent care on tuesday because i was having signs of a uti. The doctor took a urine sample and told me even though she was waiting on the culture results she was sure i had a uti and started me on bactrum. Today i finally called the doctor back to check on my results and they said it was in fact a uti but that they had me on the wrong antibiotics for the certain bacteria im fighting and are putting me on cipro. I just got done using the restroom and there was a thick clear slimy discharge. Is this normal? And also when will i finally start getting some relief? I am in excruciating pain and honestly ibuprofen and cystex just isnt cutting it. Ive also been drinking tons of water. It just seems relentless.

Hi Thank you for asking HCM. I have gone through your query. Your problem can be due to yeast infection or dysbacteriosis from antibiotic therapy. Using intimate wash daily will be helpful. In case of persisting discharge you can go for a swab test. If yeast infection using clotrimazole cream for local application will be helpful. Let me know if anything not clear. I am happy to help you. Thanks.
