1. Association with Bacterial Vaginosis (BV):

   • Mobiluncus species, particularly Mobiluncus curtisii and Mobiluncus mulieris, have been identified in the vaginal microbiota of women with bacterial vaginosis. BV is a condition where there is an imbalance in the normal bacterial flora of the vagina.

2. Clinical Presentation:

   • BV may be asymptomatic in some cases, but it can also present with symptoms such as a fishy odor, thin grayish-white vaginal discharge, and an increase in pH. It is important to note that not all women with Mobiluncus in their vaginal microbiota will develop symptoms.

3. Risk Factors:

   • Various factors can contribute to the development of bacterial vaginosis, including sexual activity, douching, multiple sexual partners, and the use of certain contraceptives.

4. Complications:

   • While bacterial vaginosis itself is generally not a serious condition, it has been associated with an increased risk of complications such as preterm birth in pregnant women, an increased risk of acquiring sexually transmitted infections (STIs), and an increased risk of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID).

5. Treatment:

   • Bacterial vaginosis is typically treated with antibiotics, such as metronidazole or clindamycin. It's important for individuals with symptoms suggestive of BV to seek medical attention for proper diagnosis and treatment.

Legend

• The interactions are based on data from 1000 healthy individuals using shotgun 10M reads Precision Biome, a provider in full conformity to EU regulations for health information
• The width of the lines indicates R² (the coefficient of determination)
• Green indicates positive slope
• Red indicates negative
• Interactions are not two way because incidence of each bacteria are different
