The vaginal environment naturally contains “good” bacteria (Lactobacilli) that keep the area healthy. An infection occurs when “bad” bacteria or yeast overgrow. In this test, a clinician uses a sterile swab to collect a sample of vaginal discharge. This sample is “cultured” (grown) in a lab on specialized plates to identify the culprit. The Sensitivity part then tests which specific medications—antifungals or antibiotics—will effectively kill that particular strain.
