What to know about bacterial vaginosis in Colakli
Colakli has large hotels along the beach, so all-inclusive buffets and pools are the usual cause of trouble. On beach holidays, heat, sun and swimming can aggravate many conditions, so rest, drink water and tell the physician what you have been doing.

The doctor takes a careful history and, if BV is likely, can prescribe appropriate treatment. If your symptoms are unclear, an in-person exam or swab may be advised. Treatment can involve antibiotic tablets or vaginal gels such as metronidazole or clindamycin.
