Vaginal Yeast Infection – How To Get Rid Of Bacterial Vaginosis And Vaginal Yeast Infection

Vaginal yeast infection and bacterial vaginosis (BV) occurring simultaneously is very uncommon. It is said that the bacteria in BV produce amines that are not conducive for yeast growth. Furthermore, in bacterial vaginosis, the good bacteria that help fight off invading microorganisms are still there, just overrun by bad ones.

In addition, if a woman with an active yeast infection is cultured for bacteria, results will most likely say that there is much less of the bacteria that are associated with the occurrence of bacterial vaginosis. This means that there are less pepto-streptococcus and anaerobic cocci and/or bacilli in the culture.

Based from these facts, it can be derived that the environmental preferences for the growth of these separate diseases are very different that is why coexistence between the two is very unlikely. However, there is always an exception to the rule—and this is one of them.

With the successful antibiotic treatment of BV, a subsequent yeast infection may occur as side effect. Depending on the antibiotic used, the likelihood that this side effect can occur varies. Penicillin derivatives are most likely to cause yeast. Even metronidazole, cephalosporins, and other routinely prescribed antibiotics can cause yeast.

As for vaginal yeast infection treatment, nystatin, amphotericin B, fluconazole, and butaconazole are frequently prescribed by doctors. Topical vaginal treatment is more preferred because strains are becoming more and more resistant and higher doses of the drugs are needed to kill the yeast. Physicians are not too inclined in prescribing systemic fluconazole to localized vaginal infection, as they are reserved for blood-borne infections.
