Beyond Gardnerella: BV Biofilm New Data.

Garderella Vaginalis may not be the only pathogen causing BV like symptoms. New data has linked BV with a vaginal BIOFILM ecosystem. It also increases the possible acquisition of other STIs, including HIV. In this session, we will review the pathophysiology, clinical symptoms, diagnostic methods, and of course treatment options for this common- and significant- vaginal condition. The recently FDA approved medication, Secnidazole, will also be briefly discussed (see separate, previous podcast).
