Hi Diane! i went to my gyn today she told me its Trichomoniasis. Discharge is greenish yellow. I am feeling pain on my left side of lower stomach. My doc gave me Ciproxin 250mg (one doze), Flagyl 200mg 3 times a day for five days and Clycin-V (Clindamycin - as phosphate) for seven days. Can you also guide me that should i go for vinegar douche? I have never done that before.

There is something more I would like to share; my body swells when i sit long hours in office and i have gained weight. Even if i workout, diet it comes back in couple of days.

Hi, Bee. I'm SO glad you went to the doctor. I hope you'll be getting some relief soon from the meds she prescribed you.

We have a great EmpowHer encyclopedia page on Trichomoniasis, if you haven't found it already:

Did your doctor tell you to do the vinegar douche? But she didn't give you instructions?
