Study lactic acid gel to change vaginal germs
Part of Infections, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This early study tests whether placing a lactic acid gel inside the vagina can change the vaginal “microbiome,” the mix of germs, to help reduce repeat BV or yeast infections. You may join if you’ve had at least two recent episodes that needed treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study checks whether using lactoferrin vaginal pessaries can work for bacterial vaginosis (BV) or thrush, compared with standard antibiotic or antifungal tablets. It’s a feasibility study, meaning the main goal is to see if the approach and home sample collection are practical.
This study tests whether a vaginal probiotic called Gyntima Balance can help prevent bacterial vaginosis from coming back. If you have had repeat infections, this might be a way to reduce future episodes.
This trial tests a vaginal gel to treat and prevent common vaginal infections like yeast infections (VVC) and bacterial vaginosis (BV). It may help if you currently have symptoms like itching, discharge, or odor.
This study tests two new investigational drugs to treat bacterial vaginosis. It aims to see if these drugs are safe and work well. If you have BV, this trial could give you access to a new treatment option.
This study looks at how the bacteria on a man’s penis may change during a woman’s vaginal microbiome transplant (VMT) for recurrent bacterial vaginosis (BV). You may be asked to follow condom and “decolonization” steps to help the researchers understand what works and why.
This trial tests if taking a multi-strain probiotic daily can prevent repeat yeast infections in women who have had at least three infections in the past year.
