Brand: Health & Vitality Center
Rating: 4.7 (58 reviews)

Chronic bacterial vaginosis is often a sign of deeper immune imbalance and microbial disruption, and long-term relief requires addressing the underlying causes, not just suppressing symptoms.

A Root-Cause Approach to Recurrent Bacterial Vaginosis

Recurring bacterial vaginosis can be physically uncomfortable and emotionally exhausting, especially when symptoms return shortly after antibiotics or topical treatment. Many women are told this is “common,” yet they are never given a clear explanation for why it keeps happening. At Health & Vitality Center, Dr. Shiva Lalezar takes a functional medicine approach designed to restore immune balance, improve detox pathways, and rebuild healthy vaginal flora.

Why UTIs Are More Common in Women

Normally, due to a shorter urethra, women are more at risk of developing UTIs or bladder infections. Also, as a woman reaches menopause, a lack of estrogen causes the receptors in the urethra to become more susceptible to bacterial infections.

Oftentimes, vaginal estrogen creams have been very helpful in alleviating recurrent UTIs. D-mannose is also prescribed to prevent UTI recurrence. D-mannose is a sugar molecule that binds to receptors in the urethra and blocks the binding of bacteria on the receptors. High-dose IV vitamin C has effectively boosted immunity and prevents infections.

Functional Treatment Strategies

IV chelation therapy has been very helpful in resolving this biofilm formation and curing bacterial vaginosis once and for all. In addition, a specific Lactobacillus probiotic is prescribed to re-inoculate the vaginal flora. These friendly bacteria produce hydrogen peroxide and inhibit the growth of bad bacteria. High-dose IV vitamin C is also very powerful in boosting immunity and correcting vaginal pH.

Restoring Microbial Balance for Long-Term Stability

The vaginal ecosystem depends on a healthy population of Lactobacillus species to maintain optimal pH and inhibit pathogenic bacteria. When beneficial bacteria are depleted, overgrowth can recur quickly. Rebuilding microbial balance through targeted probiotic support, inflammation reduction, and immune modulation is often a key step in preventing repeated infections and improving overall vaginal health.

The Role of Immune Strength and Detoxification

Chronic bacterial vaginosis often reflects a broader pattern of immune suppression or systemic imbalance. When immunity is weakened by stress, toxic burden, gut dysbiosis, or nutrient depletion, the vaginal microbiome can shift out of balance more easily. Supporting detoxification pathways and improving overall immune resilience may reduce recurrence and help restore long-term microbial stability rather than relying on repeated courses of antibiotics.
