Treatment intervention for bacterial vaginosis (BV).

Symptomatic agents seek care after a delay, receive a multi-dose antibiotic course, and may experience a durable shift in vaginal community state type (CST). Treatment effectiveness varies by the agent’s stable CST, and risk factors like douching reduce the probability of a lasting CST-1 transition.
