Abstract
At present, searching for non-toxic and easy to use local preparations, which can neutralize the vaginal discomfort and imbalance of vaginal flora, is relevant. In this regard, natural antimicrobial agents, such as extracts of herbs containing essential oils, draw attention. The author conducted research aimed to evaluation of efficacy and tolerability Gynocomfort gel with extract of mallow and Gynocomfort gel with essential oils of Tea Tree. The study group included 128 women aged 18 to 65 years. The results of the use of Gynocomfort gel were compared with traditionally used approaches to the management of relevant patient groups. The study allowed to draw conclusions about the well tolerability of by most (93.8%) patients, high efficacy of gel in the complex therapy; good moisturizing properties of gels and the absence of allergic reactions are proved.
