How should bacterial vaginosis be treated best?

Patient's question:

In recent days, the external genital area has been particularly itchy, and there is a significant increase in discharge. Now, every time I urinate, it causes pain. I don't know what might have caused this, and I'm here to ask for advice. How should bacterial vaginosis be treated effectively?

Doctor's answer:

It is recommended that you get a vaginal discharge and leukorrhea routine test done as soon as possible. This condition is usually caused by bacterial infection. First, it is important to identify what type of bacterial infection it is. Once the type of bacteria is identified, symptomatic treatment can be administered. It is important to maintain good hygiene of the vaginal area to prevent infection. Pay attention to dietary nutrition and avoid extremely cold, spicy, and irritating foods. Since the patient is directly affected by gynecological issues, we should actively adopt treatment measures and not avoid seeking medical attention. If gynecological issues persist despite treatment, it is important to promptly switch to a new treatment plan.
