What is the reason for the recurring bacterial vaginosis?

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Why does bacterial vaginosis keep recurring?

Doctor's answer:

Bacterial vaginosis is a vaginal inflammation caused by a mixed infection of Gardnerella vaginalis and many anaerobic bacteria. If it recurs repeatedly, both partners need to be treated together. For bacterial vaginosis, local medication tends to be more effective than oral medication. It is recommended to undergo systematic and standardized treatment. During the treatment period, avoid sexual activity, engage in regular exercise to enhance physical fitness, and use personal external genitalia hygiene products exclusively.
