Article Synopsis
- Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is a common vaginal infection in pregnant women, particularly impacting health outcomes during pregnancy, yet screening isn't routine in Vietnam.
- A study involving 885 pregnant women in their third trimester found that 11.1% had BV, with a significant number also experiencing fungal infections and past miscarriage linked to higher rates of BV.
- The findings emphasize the need for increased awareness and routine testing for BV in pregnant women to improve health outcomes, particularly in relation to symptoms like fishy discharge.
