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. |
