    (2025) Garcia Agreda, Nicole Quiroga; Moreno Almanza, Mónica C.; Ribera Camacho, Fabio E.; Universidad Católica Boliviana “San Pablo” (Santa Cruz, Bolivia)
    Background: Vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) is a common gynecological condition that can significantly affect the quality of life. Conventional antifungal treatments, while effective, are associated with potential side effects and resistance issues. Probiotics have emerged as a potential alternative or complementary treatment by targeting the vaginal microbiota. This review aims to evaluate whether probiotics, antifungal treatments, or a combination of both are more effective in managing VVC.
