[1.1] [#Normal Vaginal condition]
- Type 2 CST is healthy and dominated by #Lactobacillus gasseri. - It has a strong defense against infections and a decreased risk of developing BV (#Bacterial vaginosis), UTIs, and STIs. - Type 2 is also associated with a lower risk of other health conditions such as infertility, pelvic inflammatory disease, neonatal issues, and TSS.
- Type 4 CST is characterized by having low levels of #Lactobacilli and high bacterial diversity. - This type can result in vaginal dysbiosis, which may increase the risk of infections and health complications such as STIs and pelvic inflammatory disease. - Not all Type 4 communities are harmful. - Women can be asymptomatic or colonized with protective bacteria such as #Bifidobacterium. - Type 4 is further divided into three subtypes.
