Treatment of bacterial vaginosis

Bacterial vaginitis requires particularly thorough examination of women, as they often occur in girls and older women with a decrease in immunity and the spread of pathogens from the bloodstream of the permanent foci of infection in the area of ​​the external genitalia. The cause of the bacterial vaginosis in women of childbearing age may be chronic infectious-inflammatory processes in the uterus and its appendages, and hormonal disorders.

Treating bacterial vaginitis in children and older women

In the treatment of vulvovaginitis in children focuses on the identification and treatment of foci of infection and restorative treatment.

Systemic antibiotic treatment is given only in severe forms of vaginitis, which are accompanied by a violation of the general condition of the child, fever, significant tissue edema, copious purulent discharge, erosions and ulcers appearance on the surface of the mucous membranes. Antibiotics may be administered immediately after taking tests (smear on flora, PCR, ELISA and inoculation of nutrient media with the definition of the sensitivity of pathogen to antibiotics) if the child's condition does not allow to wait for the results, followed by adjusting the treatment of their receipt. But usually prescribe antibiotic treatment is still based on the results of the survey. Most often this purpose prescribed broad-spectrum antibiotics - amoxiclav Amoxiclav - an effective tool against infections Cephalexin, vilprafen Vilprafen - modern highly effective and non-toxic antibiotic   and others.

If the child a mild, vulvovaginal minor phenomenon, it is assigned to a local treatment only. Used hip baths or wash with a weak solution of potassium permanganate, chamomile, calendula, St. John's wort. Typically, this is enough to ensure that all inflammation are gone.

In women, the elderly in the development of vulvovaginitis focuses on the identification of possible cancer. With long flowing vulvovaginitah prescribed female hormones, which can significantly improve the condition of patients, even without prescription antibiotic therapy.

Treatment of bacterial vaginosis in women of childbearing age

In women of childbearing age nonspecific (caused by pathogenic microflora) bacterial vaginitis is rare - from such infections a woman protects normal microflora. For the development of nonspecific bacterial vaginitis in this case should be additional conditions.

One of these conditions is to reduce the hormonal - the normal microflora of the vagina, deprived of hormonal support, can not cope with the suppression of pathogenic microflora. Therefore, prior to treatment, women of childbearing age it certainly check hormones and reducing its prescribed corrective therapy.

Another equally important reason for the development of nonspecific bacterial vaginitis is the presence of chronic infectious-inflammatory process in the uterus and its appendages. At the same time inflammation of the vagina is kept constant of infection from the upper organs. In order to cure a vaginitis, it is necessary to identify and treat endometritis and adnexitis.

In addition, check the condition of immunity identified and being treated all chronic diseases that may reduce immunity, maintain inflammation and provoke them aggravation. Particular attention is paid to the exchange-endocrine diseases - diabetes Diabetes - threatening and incurable disease , Obesity, thyroid dysfunction, and so on.

Antibiotic therapy is carried out strictly according to the results of a preliminary survey to identify the infectious agent and its sensitivity to antibiotics. Appointed as restorative drugs (vitamin-mineral complexes, biostimulants, and so on), if necessary - immunomodulatory drugs.

Locally appointed irrigation with antiseptic solutions (easy solution magrantsovki, 0, 05% chlorhexidine, camomile), vaginal suppositories Vaginal suppositories - for contraception and treatment of inflammation   with antibacterial action (Betadine, Hexicon, yodoksid).

With early detection and elimination of all causes and predisposing factors of vaginitis prognosis is favorable. Modern medicines antibiotics can fully get rid of the inflammation caused by a nonspecific bacterial infection. It is much more difficult to treat inflammation of the uterus and appendages, especially if they are complicated by the development of adhesions and infertility.

Signs of inflammation of the ovaries

Almost every third woman once in my life had been ill with an inflammation of the ovaries. Of the patients oophoritis (inflammation of the ovaries), about half a chronic process. Inflammation of the ovaries related to the common gynecological diseases and is often combined with inflammation of the fallopian tubes Fallopian tubes: an important part of the reproductive system . The danger of this disease is that the inflammation of the ovaries often results in the development of both primary and secondary infertility. That is why every woman should know and be able to identify signs of inflammation of the ovaries to early treatment.

About ovarian inflammation

Inflammation of the ovaries - the defeat of the paired gonads pathological microorganisms. Distinguish both acute and chronic inflammation. The main reason for oophoritis are infections, sexually transmitted infections (gonorrhea, trichomonas, chlamydia), but may develop the disease caused by infection of the intestine, uterus and vagina other pathological microflora (streptococci, staphylococci, E. coli). Contributing factors of ovarian inflammation are processes that weaken the body's defenses.

Signs

The main features include inflammation of the ovaries:

• Pain

Pain in the ovaries inflammation associated with damage to the tissues of the sex glands and the surrounding peritoneum, which is full of nerve endings. In acute pain Oophoritis very intense and radiating to the lumbar and sacral region, as well as in the lower limbs. Localized pain in the abdomen. If unilateral inflammation of the ovaries, the pain is felt on the right or left side, with bilateral inflammation pain spread in the abdomen and groin on both sides.

In chronic inflammation of the ovaries pain aching or pulling, and felt all the time. Increased pain occurs during exacerbation of the process.

• Intoxication syndrome

Intoxication syndrome manifested as fever, sometimes up to high numbers. In addition, patients notice weakness, lack or loss of appetite, nausea and vomiting (due to the activity of pathological microbes and the suppression of the body's defenses). In patients with chronic inflammation of the ovaries decrease efficiency, fatigue and weakness. Furthermore, for oophoritis in the acute phase and during acute characterized palpitations and pallor.

• Dyspareunia

Dyspareunia or pain during intercourse is also a common symptom of inflammation of the ovaries Symptoms of inflammation of the ovaries - a great track record . Sexual life is impossible, especially in the case of chronic inflammation of the ovaries, due to the pressure of the penis in the area of ​​appendages.

• Beli

Abnormal discharge, or leukorrhea Beli: abnormal discharge   from the genital tract and are among the signs of inflammation of the ovaries. Purulent lesions occur in the ovaries and gonococcus and trichomonas are unfavorable symptom that indicates purulent fusion of the ovaries (piovare), followed by the development of pelvic peritonitis.

• Irritable bowel syndrome

Irritable bowel syndrome is manifested as diarrhea and evidence of purulent lesions of the ovaries, when the infection is passed to the peritoneum covering the intestines.

• Menstrual irregularities

When inflammation of the ovaries, especially in the presence of chronic oophoritis develops irregular menstruation as heavy menstruation, intermenstrual bleeding, and even in the form of amenorrhea The absence of menstruation (amenorrhea) - ambiguous symptom . Menstrual disorders associated with damage to the reproductive glands that produce hormones responsible for a regular menstrual cycle.

• Barrenness

The inability of a woman to become pregnant is the most dangerous consequence of inflammation of the ovaries. As a rule, infertility develops in chronic process, since the ovaries are responsible for the maturation and release of a mature egg, ready to be fertilized.

• Inflammatory changes in the general analysis of blood

When Oophoritis in the general blood test determine the increase of leukocytes with a shift of leukocyte formula to the left, increased erythrocyte sedimentation rate.
