recurring vaginitis

BV is a common vaginal infection that affects women in their reproductive years. In this week's video, we will be talking about vaginitis and how it affects the pelvic floor muscles.

โœ… BV can cause pelvic floor dysfunction, especially if it's recurring

โœ… BV is characterized by a shift in vaginal flora that alters the ability of the PF muscles to function optimally
