How should bacterial vaginosis be treated?

Patient's question:

Recently, I've been experiencing abnormal leukorrhea and vaginal itching. Upon careful examination, it was found to be vaginitis. I would like to know what medication should be taken for bacterial vaginosis.

Doctor's answer:

Bacterial vaginosis may be a form of bacterial vaginosis. The recurrence of bacterial vaginosis is a mixed infection triggered by vaginal flora imbalance. The typical symptoms of bacterial vaginosis include abnormal discharge, a fishy odor in the vagina, and mild itching. Treatment primarily involves oral metronidazole, which can also be placed vaginally. Generally, full recovery can be achieved within one week of treatment. During treatment, sexual activity should be avoided to prevent cross-infection from interfering with the efficacy. Many anti-inflammatory washes can also be used.
During the treatment of bacterial vaginosis, in addition to medication, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also particularly important. It is essential to prevent excessive mental stress and anxiety.
