Vaginal infections during pregnancy – risks, red flags and treatment options

Vaginal infections can negatively impact the quality of life of patients. However, during pregnancy, the negative impact is even bigger, as the infection can also have an impact on the unborn child or influence the course of the pregnancy leading to miscarriage or preterm birth. Treatment options are more limited and need to be evaluated more carefully.
