A Healthy Vagina Vaginal discharge is normal – most women and girls get it. It’s a fluid or mucus that keeps the vagina clean and moist and protects it from infection. A healthy vagina is naturally acidic with a low pH of approximately 3.8 – 4.5. This natural acidity is maintained by lactic acid producing bacteria known as lactobacilli. These bacteria flourish in an acidic environment and form a very important part of the natural defences, acting as a barrier to infections. Bacterial Vaginosis The most common cause of recurring vaginal infection is Bacterial Vaginosis (BV). Bacterial vaginosis is caused by a change in the natural balance of bacteria in the vagina. BV Develops where there is an overgrowth of anaerobic bacteria replacing the ‘normal’ bacteria (lactobacilli) that is present in the vagina.
