It is caused by <a href=\"https:\/\/medilab.km.ua\/en\/analysis\/infectious-disease-panel\/diagnosis-of-bacterial-vaginosis-gardnerellozu\/gardnerella-vaginalis-gardnereloz-ug-zishkrib\/\">this condition is caused by the bacteria Gardnerella vaginalis and others<\/a> microorganisms. Diagnosis of bacterial vaginosis is important for proper treatment and prevention of possible complications. Let&#039;s look at the methods of diagnosing this disease.<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. Clinical signs:<\/strong> The first step in diagnosing gardnerellosis is to analyze the clinical symptoms. This may include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Unpleasant fishy odor from the vaginal area.<\/li>\n<li>Changes in the consistency and color of vaginal mucus.<\/li>\n<li>Burning and itching in the vaginal area.<\/li>\n<li>Pain during sex or urination.<\/li>\n<li>Pain in the lower abdomen.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>2. Microscopic analysis of the vaginal compartment:<\/strong> Your doctor may collect a swab from your vagina and examine it under a microscope. The microscopic examination may reveal the characteristic Gardnerella vaginalis cells and other bacteria that may indicate gardnerellosis.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Determination of the pH of the vaginal environment:<\/strong> Gardnerella is usually accompanied by an increase in the pH of the vaginal environment. Your doctor can measure the pH level using a special test strip. A pH value of more than 4.5 may indicate the presence of bacterial vaginosis.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. Bacterial culture:<\/strong> This method involves growing microorganisms from a sample of the vaginal discharge on special media. Bacterial culture can confirm the presence of Gardnerella vaginalis and determine antibiotic sensitivity.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. Molecular studies:<\/strong> Modern methods use molecular techniques to detect Gardnerella vaginalis. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and other genetic methods can accurately determine the presence and amount of the bacteria.<\/p>\n<p>Once a diagnosis of gardnerellosis is made, the doctor will prescribe appropriate treatment, usually antibiotics that are active against Gardnerella vaginalis. It is important to consult a doctor in a timely manner if you suspect gardnerellosis, as untreated conditions can have serious consequences for a woman&#039;s health, including increased vulnerability to other infections and pregnancy complications.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Infection panel\/Diagnosis of bacterial vaginosis (gardnerellosis)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Real-time PCR (PCR) \u2013 qualitative determination<\/strong><\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":14942,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[136,106],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-3685","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-diagnostyka-bakterialnogo-vaginozu-gardnerelozu","product_cat-infektsijna-panel","first","instock","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/medilab.km.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/3685","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/medilab.km.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/medilab.km.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medilab.km.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3685"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medilab.km.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/14942"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/medilab.km.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3685"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medilab.km.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=3685"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medilab.km.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=3685"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medilab.km.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=3685"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
