Good bacteria vs. bad: new trial aims to stop BV from coming back

This study tests whether a probiotic supplement containing Lactobacillus crispatus can reduce the number of times bacterial vaginosis (BV) comes back in women who have had it repeatedly. About 156 women aged 18-45 will take either the probiotic or a placebo daily for 12 weeks after standard antibiotic treatment. The goal is to see if the probiotic helps maintain a healthy vaginal balance and prevents recurrence.
