Hi,Welcome to Health care magic forum.
It depends upon the fact that you have started the pills after getting the symptoms, or as a preventive measure.
If after getting the symptoms you can have the recurance of the symptoms,and has to start it again.
I advise you to consult a gynecologist for diagnosis and treatment.If she is satisfied you can try it.
Take more of green leafy vegetables, pulses, sprouts, and protein rich foods to have blood, good health and resistance against the infections.
Avoid taking fries,oily foods, and junk foods. Practice walking, yoga etc to loose the weight.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
