Abstract

One of the most common symptoms in women of reproductive age is vaginal discharge. Normal or abnormal vaginal discharge are both possible. It's important to address pathological discharge. The aim of this research was to investigate the microbiological prole of vaginal discharge and antimicrobial susceptibility trends in women of reproductive age. Easy wet laboratory preparation, 10% KOH, Gram staining, and pH paper were used to diagnose the organism, whereas differential agar media such as CHROM agar, Blood agar, and Sabouraud's Dextrose agar were used to identify and categorise the pathogens, followed by biochemical testing and effective antibiotics to observe susceptibility trends. The antimicrobial activity of Clindamycin and Fluconazole against Gardnerella Vaginalis and Candida bacteria, respectively, was the strongest.
