When Amber Takes Antibiotics and Things Go Wrong in Her Vagina

A very positive effect of the Lactobacilli is they keep the pH in Amber’s vagina low. This helps keep out unfriendly bacteria that can cause infections. If anything happens that causes the Lactobacilli ecosystem in Amber’s crotch to change, the stage is set for infections and uncomfortable conditions. For instance, let’s say Amber starts taking antibiotics for a lung infection. This kills off the wicked bacteria in her chest, but it also starts to kill off the friendly bacteria in her vagina. As a result, the lactic acid that’s produced by the good bacteria will decrease and the alkalinity in Amber’s vagina will increase. As the alkalinity or pH rises, fewer Lactobacilli will reproduce. A nasty spiral is created where the population of the good bacteria stars collapsing faster than the housing market.

As the population of the good Lactobacilli begins to crash, another of its important by-products (hydrogen peroxide) will suddenly be in short supply. With less hydrogen peroxide, unfriendly bacteria will have an easier time taking up residence in Amber’s vagina. Also, the Lactobacilli shield that was protecting the walls of Amber’s vagina will weaken. Unfriendly anaerobic bacteria will be able to invade the cell walls in Amber’s vagina. When this happens, Amber may get bacterial vaginosis or BV. One of the most common symptoms of BV is a discharge with a fishy odor.
