Brief Summary   Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is an infection of the vagina characterized by overgrowth of certain types of bacteria which leads to change in normal balance of vaginal microbiome. The signs and symptoms of Bacterial Vaginosis includes thin, grey, white or green vaginal discharge, foul-smelling "fishy" vaginal odor, vaginal itching or burning sensation during urination. The rationale of this study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of vaginal probiotic capsule (LABTHERA-001) in Bacterial Vaginosis.
