Patient's question:
I went for a test. Purity 3, Lactobacillus negative, epithelial cells +, white blood cells ++, clue cells ++, very small amount of positive bacilli, + amount of negative bacilli. How should bacterial vaginosis be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
Bacterial vaginosis is a mixed infection caused by an imbalance of normal vaginal flora. In bacterial vaginosis, lactobacilli decrease, while Gardnerella increases significantly. Clinically, it presents with mild itching of the external genitalia, thin, homogeneous discharge with a fishy odor. A vaginal pH value greater than 4.5 is required for diagnosis. Oral medication must be metronidazole, while vaginal medication uses metronidazole vaginal effervescent tablets for treatment. Additionally, during the treatment of bacterial vaginosis, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also very important.
