Vaginal content microflora culture without antibiotic sensitivity determination
Bacteriological vaginal content culture for bacteria and microorganism detection. Determines microflora composition, identifies opportunistic and pathogenic organisms, assesses vaginal environment. Confirms infection and helps select treatment.
Deviation mechanism: Normal vaginal microflora — beneficial lactobacilli. With microflora imbalance, opportunistic/pathogenic bacteria multiply → inflammation, itching, discharge, discomfort.
Recommended for: vaginal inflammatory disease women; chronic or recurrent vaginal infections; microflora monitoring before treatment or procedures; pregnancy planning prophylactic examination.
Vaginal content collected with sterile swab
Avoid antibacterial or antifungal drugs 48-72 hours before (by physician agreement)
Do not use vaginal suppositories or intimate hygiene products 24 hours before
Collect in sterile conditions and deliver quickly
Vaginal discomfort, itching, or odor; unusual discharge; suspected bacterial vaginosis, candidiasis, or other infection; pregnancy planning or pre-gynecological procedures; recurrent inflammatory processes.
Microorganisms detected — species and quantity indicated.
Not detected — pathogenic microorganisms not found.
Gynecologist makes final assessment.
Note: Sensitivity testing only when clinically significant organism detected.
Recommended physicians: Gynecologist; General Practitioner; Pediatric gynecologist (children if needed)
