Abstract
Pathological discharge from the genital tract and other signs of discomfort of the external genitalia are a common cause of a visit to the gynecologist. The cause of these disorders in most cases is vulvovaginal infection, accompanied (vaginitis) or not accompanied (vaginosis) by leukocyte reaction. Methods for treating vulvovaginal infection are predominantly local therapy or systemic agents with highly selective antimicrobial activity. Since a significant part of the vaginitis is of mixed polymicrobial origin, treatment should be complex, which determines the possibility of prescribing topical medicines containing several components of a wide spectrum of action. At the same time, the complexity of diagnosis and the time spent on it allow one to talk about the advisability of empirical therapy of vulvovaginitis, accompanied by severe clinical symptoms.
