Is it true that probiotics help treat bacterial vaginosis?
Yes. A 2021 peer-reviewed review states that multiple studies show oral or vaginal probiotics can effectively treat and prevent recurrent bacterial vaginosis, and an expert-opinion paper likewise reports probiotics are effective in managing BV; a small randomized trial adds Lactobacillus to standard BV treatment, though its outcomes are not reported here.
