Vagina infection

HI mummy, I received a call from KKH on being positive for Gardnerella Vaginalis (after having brown discharge and done a vaginal swab and was also prescribed with Utrogesta). When I went down to the clinic, The doctor answer was like very vague , he said this is common and has no impact to the baby and even after eating, it will not be 100% cured, I can still be positive for GV. If the brown discharge is bothering me , I can eat the pills. Then, what's the point of eating anti biotic? I am just afraid it will harm the baby.

Taking the meds will definitely help the discomfort and infection so I think what the doc is trying to say is even though by taking meds that does not mean that it will not come back. I have yeast infection every other week since I got pregnant and am currently at 12 weeks still having infection but medication definitely helped ease my itch and discomfort, but I’ve also realised by not wearing panty liner and changing my undies twice a day or when I have too much discharge helps to ease up cause our PH is messed up now due to the pregnancy..
