Help Needed Interpreting High Vaginal Swab Results

Hi everyone it’s just as the title says, would like some help interpreting these results. For context i’ve been suffering with a suspected yeast infection for months now with little relief using both oral and insertable anti fungal medications.

A doctor suspected that I had a UTI as well and prescribed me Flagyl as well, still no relief. Went to another doc and she recommended I do a high vaginal swab.

But when i looked at it I was kinda surprised to see no mention of yeast or anything, because she said that some strains can be harder to treat so you have to test to find out the specific strain.

Honestly the burning when urinating/discharge isn’t as bad as when it first started but still I would love to be rid of this. Any input would be appreciated.

High Vaginal swab
