Pregnant women with bacterial vaginosis medication

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Please ask about medication for bacterial vaginosis during pregnancy

Doctor's answer:

Recurrent bacterial vaginosis during pregnancy can lead to symptoms such as increased vaginal discharge and itching. If left untreated, it may interfere with a normal delivery. Since vaginitis is an inflammation of the vaginal mucosa, treatment generally focuses on local medication. If the pregnancy duration is less than three months, the use of suppositories is not recommended. Instead, initial treatment can involve using a liquid for wiping and sitz baths. Oral medications should only be considered, with penicillin or cephalosporin antibiotics being the options.
