Contraindications for bacterial vaginosis

There are many misunderstandings in the treatment of bacterial vaginosis. This is because people do not know enough about bacterial vaginosis, which will lead to certain deviations in the treatment of bacterial vaginosis. For example, people do not persevere in the treatment, give up halfway, or blindly use drugs without targeted treatment, which will result in half the effort and extremely poor efficacy. There is also excessive use of antibiotics. The following editor will introduce the misunderstandings in the treatment of bacterial vaginosis.

Myth 1: Vaginal cleaning and care should not be done within three days after menstruation

Expert analysis: Within three days after the end of menstruation, the vagina is most susceptible to infection and most in need of deep care and cleaning. Proper care can make women sleep peacefully throughout their menstrual cycle.

Myth 2: Excessive use of antibiotics can directly cause pathogens to develop drug resistance

The restrictive relationship between vaginal flora is destroyed, which leads to the continuous extension of the treatment cycle. If the drug dosage is increased, the disease will not be effectively treated.

Myth 3: Using only one drug

Because bacterial vaginosis is so easy to recur, some women are afraid of trouble and often buy medication on their own according to the doctor's prescription after seeing a doctor once. Experts point out that this method is "time-saving" but not "trouble-free" because inflammation can easily produce drug resistance.

Myth 4: Leucorrhea is unclean and must be cleaned absolutely and thoroughly

Expert analysis: Normal leucorrhea is one of the signs of the health of the female reproductive system and is by no means unclean. Some women are accustomed to wrapping their fingers with "clean" wet wipes every time they wash their genitals. This will bring in pathogenic bacteria, increase leucorrhea and even cause serious gynecological inflammation.
