Hi,
There’s a strong possibility of a STD in your girlfriend’s case and I’ll suggest a culture of the secretions and probably she’ll need a different class of antibiotics for a slightly longer duration. Common STD’s which happen are chlamydiae, gonorrhea etc. Your girlfriend needs to consult a gynecologist for the diagnosis and treatment.
I sincerely hope that helps. Please do keep me posted. Warm Regards.
