What causes bacterial vaginosis?

Patient's question:

Which hospital is good for treating bacterial vaginosis? I don't know how I ended up getting bacterial vaginosis. I want to ask what caused it? What are the causes of bacterial vaginosis?

Doctor's answer:

Women should pay attention to prevention and maintain good personal hygiene in daily life. Causes:
1. Antibiotics inhibit the growth of lactobacilli in the vagina, disrupt the natural ecological balance, damage the vaginal environment, and lead to the recurrence of bacterial vaginosis.
2. Women with diabetes and pregnancy symptoms are particularly susceptible to this disease.
3. Personal hygiene during daily life requires special attention and importance to prevent and avoid the recurrence of vaginitis. For example, using toilet paper to wipe from the anus toward the vagina after using the restroom can transfer intestinal bacteria to the external genitalia, causing bacterial vaginosis.
