BV (bacterial vaginosis) is a condition occurring in the vagina of women due to excessive growth of bacteria in it.
In the vagina of a woman bacteria occur naturally to maintain the pH of the vagina which is acidic, and also prevents the growth of other infection causing fungi and germs in the vagina.
To cure BV, antibiotics are administered to the patient.
These antibiotics are helpful in eradicating the disease for some time.
But after some time this disease is found to victimize the lady once again.
This happens because the antibiotics act by not only killing the harmful bacteria but also the useful bacteria that check the growth of infection and maintain the proper environment in the vagina.
This is the reason why probiotics treatment path is opted.
A strain called lactobacillus strain exists in the human vagina.
This strain is responsible for balancing the acidic environment in the vagina and checks the growth of fungi like yeast in the vagina.
During BV this strain of lacto bacillus out grows its usual number and causes an infection due to the formation of other bacterial strains.
When antibiotics are administered they kill the unwanted infection causing bacteria strains, but along with that they clear the vagina of the beneficial strain lactobacillus as well.
As a result the infection gets eradicated for the time being but resurfaces after some time because now there are no beneficial bacteria present to check the growth of unwanted infection causing bacteria.
These are the reason why probiotics treatment has to be opted as it works by introducing beneficial bacteria in the vagina of the victim.
These beneficial bacteria will recreate the necessary environment to check the growth of BV causing bacteria in the vagina again.
Probiotics treatments consist of administering oral tablets called the lactobacillus tablets.
Many say its better to take antibiotics and lactobacillus tablets together to prevent and cure BV.
But some argue that lactobacillus tablets are as good as antibiotics, then why take both and complicate the matter? Moreover probiotics are not free from causing undesirable side effects in human body.
But still probiotic treatment is preferable because it supports your immune system properly and it prevents the victim from gaining the extra weight.
So if you are suffering from recurrent BV ask your doctor about probiotics treatment to help you fight this, as it is more helpful than antibiotics in usual cases.
