Abstract

Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is an important polymicrobial state of abnormal genital tract colonisation which is easy to diagnose and easy to treat but which is poorly understood and therefore ignored or neglected by clinicians. Despite this, or perhaps as a result, BV is increasingly being associated with adverse sequelae in the practice of both obstetrics and gynaecology.
