Bacterial Vaginosis

Bacterial Vaginosis (BV) is an infection of the vagina caused by an excessive growth of bacteria, resulting in symptoms such as increased vaginal discharge with a fish-like odor, burning sensation during urination, and occasionally itching. Though some women may be asymptomatic, BV can double the risk of acquiring sexually transmitted infections and increase the likelihood of early delivery in pregnant women.
