  • Title: [The bacterial vaginosis--treatment problems].
    Author: Romanik MK, Ekiel AM, Tomana L, Martirosian G.
    Journal: Wiad Lek; 2007; 60(1-2):64-7. PubMed ID: 17607971.
    Abstract:
    The changes in vaginal ecosystem (decreasing number of H2O2 producing Lactobacillus spp. and increasing number of Mobiluncus spp., Gardnerella vaginalis, Atopobium vaginae, Prevotella spp., Mycoplasma hominis, Peptostreptococcus spp.) appears to be a major cause of bacterial vaginosis (BV). Bacterial vaginosis is associated with infectious complications in pregnant and non-pregnant women and increasing risk of STI. The preventive role of natural vaginal microflora and problems of BV treatment are discussed in the light of the recent publications.
