Question : Hi - im suffering from a yeast infection - pls see attached report - can you pls prescribe a medicine? My periods will start in a couple of days

Brief Answer:
Fluconazole

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand the concerns.
I have reviewed the reports.
Th reports show the candida infection in high vaginal swab culture and inflammation in liquid based cytology.
You should be given fluconazole 400 mg once daily for 3 days with vaginal suppositories like candid CL for 3 days. You should consult an OBGYN for the same.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Regards
