Wet prep high bacteria overgrowth 22w?

tmi warning.. but.. i noticed a bad vaginal odor like bad cheese.. and i had a wet prep done and my doc just left me a message that i have a high bacteria overgrowth on my wet prep.. so she said she called in a prescription of antibiotics for me.. i guess i'm just wondering what infection i have- since she didn't say and all day today i've been feeling extra wet but its watery like discharge but i'm almost positive its not my water as its not a steady flow or anything just annoying.. based on the info can you ladies tell me what i have lol? sounds silly but i'm just curious as to what it is just so i know. Thanx!

Sounds like BV to me too! I just got checked out last night cause I had an extra wet feeling that filled a liner, and scared me but all was fine...The dr said  he thinks I have BV because of an "odor" as well (that was embarrassing). I got my prescription today...flagyl is what it is, but the medication I got is a generic.

It's probably BV Bacteria  Vaginosis. There are two in your vagina at all times BV and Yeast.  You get a yeast infection when the yeast is in over growth and you get BV when BV is over growth. I've had it several times this pregnancy. I take the antibiotics and usually end up with a yeast infection also. So watch out for that too. If you start itching call your Dr.
