Bacterial Vaginosis (BV) - Further Information

Info on bacterial vaginosis

Bacterial vaginosis BV is one of the more irritating but less harmful problems that ladies face. A vaginal bacterial infection by its basic nature, BV is a situation where harmful bacteria grow inside the vaginal canal of the human female and cause a set of problems within the body of the infected woman. This is an issue that is typically faced by women of the child-birth age.

Bacterial vaginosis (BV), also often called as vaginal bacteriosis, is a bacterial infection. This is a rather irritating problem in most of the cases. A swollen vagina with a foul-smelling discharge which could be greenish or yellowish in color or even colorless is the primary set of symptoms of the problem. This could potentially be associated with vaginal itch and irritation during sexual intercourse and urination. However, these are secondary set of symptoms and may not be associated with every case of BV.

A detailed discussion of bacterial vaginosis BV has been carried out on this page of our website. So you may want to go and read up for more details on the above-mentioned page by clicking the link.

However, at the same time, it is important that you also understand how you can steer clear of BV in the longer term and lead a healthy lifestyle. BV occurs when there is an imbalance in the vaginal bacteria proportions. Due to changed conditions such as change in the vaginal acidity level, the proportion of good bacteria to harmful bacteria takes a turn towards the worse and that leads to outgrowth of the bad bacteria compared to the healthy ones. This leads to BV.

As a consequence of the reason discussed above, you would want to maintain the vaginal acidity level to protect yourself from the problem. And if you are already facing the issues then your objective should be to restore the acidity.

Bacterial vaginosis home remedies today have gained popularity. Unlike the traditional antibiotic treatments that kill both good and bad bacteria but do not treat the root cause of the problem (the change of vaginal acidity), these treatments focus on fixing the root cause. And once they succeed in restoring the vaginal pH levels, the vagina enjoys a long-term elimination of the problem. Maintaining the healthy lifestyle ensures a practically permanent cure of the issue.
