Bacterial vaginosis is associated with having infected new sex partner or multiple sex partners. It is seldom found in women who have never had intercourse. Basic prevention would include using condoms, limiting the number of sex partners, abstaining from douching, and using a full dose of the medicine prescribed for the treatment of bacterial vaginosis, even if the symptoms go away.
Vaginal yeast infections can be easily prevented
* Avoid tight-fitting jeans or pantyhose,
* If pregnant, report the onset of new symptoms to a physician immediately,
* Avoid chemical irritants in deodorized tampons,
* Do not use douches or feminine hygiene products,
* Regular bathing is usually adequate to cleanse the vagina,
* Keep your vaginal area dry, especially after a shower,
* Wipe from front to rear after using the toilet,
* Switch to looser-fitting cotton underwear and
* Change wet bathing suits after a swim.
If you are diagnosed with a trichomonal infection, your sex partner should also be checked to make sure your partner doesn’t have other sexually transmitted diseases and also may re-infect you if not treated. Safe sex with condoms and counseling about sexually transmitted diseases are recommended.
