Is There Any Doctor Available To Interpret This Report?

My girlfriend did a std blood test and the results are shown below:-
Pus 4+
Gram positive coccobacilli 3+
Gram negative coccobacilli 3+

She has been given ciprofloxacin 500mg medication to treat it

What does this mean? Is it contagious? Is it sexually transmitted?

Hi,
It does not appear to to a blood test report. It appears to be more of a pus report from a lesion.
Without knowing the organism, i cannot comment. If it is in the genital region, there is a high chance, that it can spread.
Culture will help in diagnosis of the type of organism and depending on culture report, i can help you with the other questions.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
