Hi,

First of all, if she is breastfeeding her baby, should stop breastfeeding while taking treatment as they could cause side effects to the baby.

I suggest to continue with the medications started from her doctor, then to :

- do urine analysis
- vaginal swab testing
- abdominal/transvaginal ultrasound

All the best!
