So I think I'm fortunate enough to get both BV and UTI at the same time because my vagina loves me. I've had plenty of recurring UTIs and BV once before. I'm currently studying abroad in Taiwan, so before I left the States, my doctor helped me out by prescribing me Nitrofurantoin (for UTI) and Clindamycin (for BV) in case I get those infections while I'm out of the country.
Well, yesterday, throughout the day, I felt a strong urgency to pee with just a few drops of urine each time. I took my cranberry supplements (I know it's to prevent the UTI, not cure, but I took them anyways hoping they would help) and drank lots of water. By night time, it felt like it cleared up. This morning, I decided to start taking the Nitrofurantoin, even though I didn't feel any UTI symptoms throughout the morning. This afternoon, I noticed the BV symptoms, a fishy odor. It's not very strong, but stronger than normal. Later on, I noticed white discharge. I assumed that maybe I didn't have a UTI after all.. maybe it's BV instead. So during dinner, I took one Clindamycin. Two hours after taking it, the UTI symptoms are back and I can't stop running to the bathroom.
If this doesn't clear up in another day or two, I'll probably go to a nearby hospital/clinic. I'm just worried about the language barrier.
Thanks in advance!!
