A bath for 30 minutes every day should help in restoring the vaginal flora.



Another important step in the process of recurrent bacterial vaginosis treatment would be a clean colon and intestine. This can be achieved by having green vegetables, fruits, salads and other items that have fiber content. This will help in adding roughage to the bowels. And proper bowel movements will help to create a clean intestine.

"Bacterial vaginosis explained "


Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is caused by an imbalance of the bacteria normally present in the vagina. In women with BV, the normal healthy bacteria (in particular, lactobacilli) are replaced by an overgrowth of other, mixed bacteria. Bacterial vaginosis has, in the past, been called nonspecific vaginitis or gardnerella vaginitis. This is misleading as it implies that.the bacterium Gardnerella vaginalis is the cause – this is not known.



Bacterial vaginosis may occur at the same time as other infections or sexually transmissible infections (STIs).

Symptoms
Symptoms of BV may include:

A watery, white or grey discharge instead of normal vaginal secretions

A strong or unusual odour from the vagina, often described as a ‘fishy’ odour.

About half of all women with bacterial vaginosis will have no symptoms.

How bacterial vaginosis is spread


Although it is not clear how bacterial vaginosis is transmitted, it is more common in women who are sexually active. It sometimes develops soon after intercourse with a new partner. Women who have female sexual partners may be at higher risk than women who have sex with male partners.
The link between specific sexual practices and BV is not conclusive; however, recent evidence supports the use of condoms to reduce the risk of this infection.

"Diagnosis"

During a medical examination, your doctor may notice:

The discharge or odour

Decreased acidity of the vaginal fluid – this can occur even if you have not noticed any symptoms.

Treatment

If you have no symptoms, treatment is usually not required. You should receive treatment if you:

Have symptoms or your doctor has noticed signs of bacterial vaginosis

Are about to have a medical procedure that could allow bacteria into the uterus – for example, insertion of an IUD or termination of pregnancy

Are pregnant – your obstetrician may need to be consulted about treatment.

Antibiotics are used to treat the infection

An antibiotic known as metronidazole is often used to treat the infection. You will need to:

Take the antibiotic twice a day for seven days

Take the tablets after meals – this can reduce the nausea and upset stomach that is sometimes associated with metronidazole

Avoid drinking alcohol during treatment.

Your doctor can prescribe a vaginal cream if you are unable to take metronidazole, such as clindamycin cream – this is applied to the vagina for seven nights.



Recurrences can occur

Even after treatment, about half of the women with bacterial vaginosis will get the condition back again within six to 12 months. This may be due to the treatment not working or to re-infection.
Treating the male partner of an infected woman does not seem to reduce the risk of recurrence. Female partners of infected women are at increased risk, so screening for BV and treatment (if required) is recommended.

"Prevention"

Most cases of bacterial vaginosis appear to be associated with sexual activity. Condoms have been shown to protect against infection and safe sexual practices are recommended for all women regardless of the gender of their partners.
