The article reflects a modern view on the introduction of fluorescent methods of diagnostics and treatment of vaginal infections using lactoferrin in clinical microbiology, which made it possible to expand microecological studies. The suppression of the normal vaginal microflora was shown to promote a diverse pathology of both inflammatory and non-inflammatory genesis. Bacterial and fungal vaginosis were proved to be the most important risk factors for the development of infectious complications in the gynecological practice. There are given substantiated scientific evidence, indicating a large number of recurrences of bacterial and candidal vaginitis, despite the numerous studies and various treatment options. The relationship of bacterial vaginitis with infertility, the threat of miscarriage, premature birth, intrauterine infection of the fetus, etc. was established. Based on this, the search for alternative combined methods is relevant. The aim of the study was to increase the effectiveness of the treatment of recurrent candid vulvovaginitis and bacterial vaginosis by using lactoferrin. In the study, there were used fluorescent methods of the diagnosis, which made it possible to verify the diagnosis in the rapid assessment mode, as well as monitor treatment and improve its effectiveness.
