Describe any two common types of vaginitis.

Bacterial vaginosis results from overgrowth of one or more of several organisms typically present in the vagina, upsetting the natural balance of vaginal bacteria. It can be spread during sexual intercourse but also occurs in people who are not sexually active. Bacterial vaginosis is treated with an antibiotic and requires a prescription from a health care provider.
Yeast infection is so common that it is estimated that three of four women will have a yeast infection in their lifetime. A naturally occurring fungus changes the normal environment in the vagina. Yeast infections can also occur in the mouth, skinfolds, and fingernail beds. It is also thought to be one of the causes of diaper rash in babies. Yeast infections are usually treated with an anti-yeast cream or suppository placed in the vagina. Some products are available over the counter, others by prescription only.
