How is bacterial vaginosis usually treated?

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower abdomen, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? How is bacterial vaginosis usually treated?

Doctor's answer:

I'm glad to help you with your question. Bacterial vaginosis first requires a careful examination of vaginal discharge to confirm the diagnosis. Then, a drug sensitivity test should be conducted to determine the appropriate antibiotic for anti-inflammatory treatment. Oral medication combined with vaginal suppositories can be considered. During treatment, avoid sexual intercourse, and maintain good hygiene habits, especially personal hygiene before and after sexual activity, as well as hygiene for your partner, which is very important. Otherwise, it may recur repeatedly.
