New CPU: Male RX for BV (10/16/25

On March 7, 2025, we released an episode summarizing key aspects of a NEJM publication regarding male partner therapy for women with recurrent BV. Although that study had limitations, the results were very surprising. Now, on 10/16/25 (7 months later), the ACOG has a new Clinical Practice Update (CPU) on this very issue. In this episode we will briefly summarize that March 2025 NEJM publication and highlight the TWO updated clinical recommendations from the ACOG regarding male partner therapy for the prevention of BV in women. PLUS, we will briefly discuss why although male partner therapy should be considered, partner EPT is “not recommended” at this time by the ACOG. 1.
