Mechanisms and Therapeutic Implications of Microbiome‐Mediated Immune Dysregulation in Recurrent Pregnancy Loss and Implantation Failure

American Journal of Reproductive Immunology, Volume 95, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Problem Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL), defined as two or more consecutive pregnancy losses before 20 weeks of gestation, affects 1%–5% of couples of reproductive age worldwide. Growing evidence indicates a role for the microbiome in reproductive health, particularly in unexplained RPL.

Laboratory diagnosis of gardnerella vaginalis vaginosis

West African Journal of Medicine, 2004
An evaluation of various laboratory detection methods and characteristics of Gardnerella vaginalis was made using high vaginal swab samples of 470 out patient clinic--attending women. Gram stain for 'clue cells' showed positive results in 118 (25.1%)cases; culture, in 100 cases, (213%) and Amine Odour (213%), in 26 cases 5.5%, Majority, 71 cases, of ...

Endometrial microbiota‐targeted therapies for chronic endometritis‐associated recurrent implantation failure and their impact on IVF outcomes: A systematic review and methodological quality assessment

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, Volume 105, Issue 3, Page 418-435, March 2026.
Microbiota‐targeted interventions may improve implantation and pregnancy outcomes in women with chronic endometritis‐associated recurrent implantation failure. However, current evidence is constrained by heterogeneous study designs, nonstandardized diagnostic criteria, small cohort sizes, and limited adjustment for confounding factors.

Gardnerella vaginalis causing tubo-ovarian abscess

Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 1997
Gardnerella vaginalis is associated with the condition of bacterial vaginosis. In this condition, it is believed that G. vaginalis and non-sporing anaerobes work together to produce a true mixed infection, and that G. vaginalis serves at least as a marker for bacterial vaginosis.

Association between obesity and bacterial vaginosis as assessed by Nugent score [PDF]

, 2019
Background Bacterial vaginosis is one of the most common vaginal conditions in the U.S. Recent studies have suggested obese women have an abnormal microbiota reminiscent of BV; however, few studies have investigated the prevalence of bacterial vaginosis
