Summary
This study in Nepal tests whether using rapid point-of-care tests for sexually transmitted infections can reduce the overuse of antibiotics for vaginal discharge. About 1,500 women will be split into three groups: standard care, test-guided treatment, or test-guided treatment plus extra education. The goal is to see if these tests help doctors prescribe antibiotics only when truly needed, and to understand what helps or hinders their use.
