Is bacterial vaginosis difficult to treat?

Patient's question:

Hello, is bacterial vaginosis difficult to treat? I'm really worried?

Doctor's answer:

Bacterial vaginosis is primarily caused by vaginal flora imbalance and the transmission of opportunistic pathogens, mainly Gardnerella. It is recommended that you take clindamycin or metronidazole orally to alleviate symptoms, and also use metronidazole suppositories externally. Avoid sexual activity temporarily during medication. If your sexual partner has symptoms, they should also be treated actively. Pay attention to external genital hygiene and avoid spicy or irritating foods for the time being. Regular follow-up check-ups are recommended.
