  • In the vagina of each healthy woman there is a set of microorganisms, which is called microflora. The composition of normal microflora is quite constant and similar to healthy women. Normally the main microorganisms of the vagina are lactobacillia.

    When the lactobacillia is replaced by anaerobic microorganisms (Gardnerella Vaginalis, Mobiluncus, Mycoplasma Hominis, Bacteroides, Enterococcus) develops bacterial vaginosis. Before the role of other microbes was evaluated, this disease was often called Gardnellose.

    According to medical statistics, to date, up to 20% of all women aged 18 to 50 suffer from this disease.



    Why it arises?

    Bacterial vaginosis
    TO
    Changes in vaginal microflora can lead: Drainage, reception
    antibiotics, the use of contraceptive and therapeutic vaginal
    Candles and pastes. In addition, the activity of bacteria is increasing when
    The woman has a hormone background, immunity is reduced, as well as
    During stress.

    Notes that with more probability, bacterial vaginosis occurs in women, often changing sexual partners.



    What is manifested?

    Basic
    symptom — Strengthening vaginal discharges, their unpleasant appearance
    smell. Almost half of women suffering from bacterial vaginosis,
    complains of itching and burning in the vagina and discomfort during
    intercourse.



    Diagnosis and treatment of Gardnerellize

    Dermatovenerologist is engaged in the diagnosis and treatment of bacterial vaginosis.

    For
    Putting the diagnosis take a smear from the genitals to the study
    and make bacteriological sowing. Also conduct pH-metry — normal
    In the vagina, the environment is acidic, and with bacterial vaginosis —
    Alkaline. Helps the diagnosis of amino test (reaction to Isonitrile —
    Substance that gives out the smell of rotten fish).

    Treatment schemes
    Bacterial vaginosis includes active in relation to causative agents
    Antibiotics, as a rule, for local (intrafital)
    Applications. Along with antibiotics are prescribed drugs normalizing
    Microflora Vagina (Eubiotics). After graduation
    Mazz dreamed again to control the completeness of cure.

    Gardnerellis prevention differs little from the prevention of other genital infections:

    • use condoms;
    • avoid random sexual bonds;
    • Within 2 hours after suspicious sex contact, use antiseptics (for example, chlorhexidine).
