Vaginal flora & recurrent infections.
Burning, itching, discharge, cystitis — again and again, and always the same cream? Recurrent symptoms are not a hygiene problem; they are usually a microbiome and hormone issue. We are planning a clinic that breaks the cycle instead of extending it.
It keeps coming back — am I doing something wrong?
No. After standard therapy, half of all cases return within a year. That's the system, not you
So another round of antibiotics?
Not as a permanent answer. We look at the microbiome — rebuilding, not just killing
Bacterial vaginosis returns in more than half of women after conventional antibiotic treatment — the problem is the approach, not the patient.

A clinic for everyone for whom “one more cream” stopped working long ago:
Microscopy, pH, targeted swabs, pathogen testing where needed: what is actually going on — thrush, bacterial vaginosis, dryness, a skin condition, or something else entirely?
Pill, breastfeeding, menopause: hormonal status changes the mucosa. Ignoring it means treating past the core of the problem.
Treatment concepts that stabilise the flora again — including a sober account of what probiotics can and cannot demonstrably do.
A written plan for the case it comes back: what you can do yourself, when to contact us, what we will do differently then.
Who is it for?
- ·More than three infections a year
- ·Symptoms despite repeated treatment
- ·Recurrent urinary tract infections
- ·Dryness, burning or irritation during menopause

What you should know.
Isn't this simply poor hygiene?
No — often the opposite. Excessive intimate hygiene and washes destroy the protective flora and encourage relapses. That is exactly what we discuss.
Do probiotics help?
For some constellations there is evidence, for others there is not. We tell you where the data supports something — and where it does not. No selling without a basis.
What does it cost?
Assessment of symptoms is covered by statutory insurance. Additional specialist diagnostics and extended consultations may be self-pay. Prices at launch, always with a written cost plan.
No need to wait: many of these topics can already be discussed in our regular consultations today.
