Are there any other options other than metronidazole for vaginosis?

Yes, there are other options available besides metronidazole for treating vaginosis. If metronidazole is not effective, it may be due to the specific bacteria not being sensitive to the antibiotic, or it could mean that the issue is not bacterial vaginosis. In such cases, it is important to seek medical reevaluation to determine the best course of treatment. Your doctor can provide alternative options or treatments if needed.
