A non-antibiotic treatment for Bacterial vaginosis (BV)
Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is the most common cause of infective vaginal discharge. According to the Family Planning Association, as many as one in three women will experience BV at some point in their lives. In UK general practice there is a prevalence of 9%.
BV often occurs when vaginal pH levels increase causing vaginal odour and abnormal discharge. BV can result from disturbances to the natural environment of the vagina; these include fluctuating hormone levels during periods, pregnancy and menopause. Other influencing factors include antibiotics, sexual intercourse (semen is alkaline), douching and smoking.
BV can recur after standard antibiotic treatment and recurrence rates can be as high as 70%.
Relactagel restores and maintains the natural vaginal pH and prevents recurrence of BV symptoms.
Relactagel is available in UK pharmacies on prescription and over the counter.
