How long does it take to recover from bacterial vaginitis?
When bacterial vaginosis occurs, we use different medications to treat it, and the duration of treatment varies. However, most current treatment plans typically span a seven-day course. Generally, after one course of treatment, most cases of bacterial vaginosis can return to normal. However, there are some more persistent cases of bacterial vaginosis. It's possible that the initial treatment plan chosen may be ineffective, and it might be necessary to change treatment plans to address the condition. Therefore, overall, for most cases of bacterial vaginosis, a typical treatment course of seven days usually leads to recovery.
Can bacterial vaginitis affect conception?
Bacterial vaginosis generally does not have a particularly large or obvious impact on conception, but it can indeed potentially affect the process of conception. This is primarily because when bacterial vaginosis occurs, there are usually a significant number of inflammatory cells in the vagina or the cervix. These inflammatory cells may affect sperm, thereby potentially impacting the process of conception. Of course, when bacterial vaginosis is present, it is generally recommended to treat it before pregnancy. This is mainly because if bacterial vaginosis exists during pregnancy, there may be an increased risk of bleeding, miscarriage, or premature birth. Therefore, it is usually advised to treat bacterial vaginosis before planning to conceive.
Can you have children with bacterial vaginitis?
When there is a clear case of bacterial vaginosis, it is generally recommended to cure it before planning to conceive a child. This is mainly because, if one becomes pregnant while having bacterial vaginosis, it may increase the risk of miscarriage or premature birth. This is primarily due to the fact that bacterial vaginosis can lead to an increase in inflammatory substances in the vagina or cervix. The increase in inflammatory cells can easily stimulate contractions, thus leading to the risks of miscarriage, premature birth, and an increased risk of premature rupture of membranes. Therefore, it is generally advised to first cure the vaginitis before planning a pregnancy.
