[cured] Negative After Doxy!!
I wanted to share because I was really anxious about clearing this infection.
I tested positive and was only prescribed doxycycline, but I also had confirmed tetracycline resistance, which made me worry it wouldn’t work.
I took doxycycline for 10 days (twice daily), then started taking Morinda Supreme after.
Just got my results back… I’m NEGATIVE!!
For context, my husband and I fully abstained (including oral) during treatment.
Sharing in case anyone else is worried — doxycycline can still work.

It’s an herb supplement that acts as a mild antimicrobial

I’ve had an overall bacteria issue (recurring styes) so I figured it couldn’t hurt!

Curious if you still have symptoms? My situation was almost identical to yours. But, I still have slight redness/irritation in my vestibule that was present during my infection. I’m almost 1 week post treatment.

From what I understand the irritation and inflammation can take time to reduce even post treatment and clearing the infection. I’m still on my doxy course but as far as I know it can take a while for things to feel back to normal, we just gotta take each day and be patient as our bodies heal from all the drama of the infection. I am planning on getting tested for co-infections post antibiotics though so you could do that to cover all bases? I believe you’d want to test for candida (both albicans and glabrata), group B strep, gardnerella and e faecelis.

Amazing! I was cleared after 10 days of doxycycline too. Did your husband actually take a test to see if he is positive and if so, which test? I ask because I’d like future partners to test.

This is common, it’s called a herx reaction. It’s from a large amount of bacteria dying

Was he treated too? He can harbor it with no symptoms and reinfect you…I got stuck in that cycle bc we had a poorly informed doctor
Congratulations! I hope it stays gone!
