Dear Sir/

My question is how come? Trichomonas can be treated by changing the media from alkaline to be more acidic? so, i prefer to use acidic douches e.g. acetoacetic acid. On the other hand, Moniliosis can be treated by changing the media from acidic to alkaline e.g NaHco3 douches...Please give me the name of your reference about that topic...

cheers

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
