triple swab means
HVS from vagina for C&S
endocervical swab from cervix for C&S
endocervical swab from cervix for chlamydia
is this right? |

No hence the reason why you should specifically mention LVS in any obstetric question.
Best to go for Triple swabs and LVS if in any doubt as the latter relates to Gp B strep which seem to be responsible for anything these days even the impending property crash!!  |
