  • Title: [Cytolytic vaginosis--clinical and microbiological study].
    Author: Shopova E, Tiufekchieva E, Karag'ozov I, Koleva V.
    Journal: Akush Ginekol (Sofiia); 2006; 45 Suppl 2():12-3. PubMed ID: 16922338.
    Abstract:
    47 women at reproductive age were diagnosed with cytolytic vaginosis according to their clinical and microbiological findings, including abundant lactobacilli/score 0 by Nugent/, free nuclei due to cytolysis, paucity of leucocytes, over 200 colony of HP/+/Lactobacillus spp., but no fungal growth. Heavy growth of HP/+/Lactobacillus spp. creates conditions under which the intensified cytolysis, displayed as abundant fluor, is likely to be due not only to the increased quantity of lactic acid but as well as to hyper production of hydrogen peroxide. 32 patients report improvement of their condition after at an average of 2 cycles of vaginal douches with sodium bicarbonate.
