Association between the frequency of isolation of EcoVag® and other Lactobacillus strains with cure of BV and VVC (until 6-month follow up). The frequency of isolation (y axis) is determined as the percentage of samples positive for EcoVag® strains and other lactobacilli on the total number of samples for each group (cured or relapse). Trial I: women treated for BV with antibiotics and EcoVag® (BV EcoVag®). Trial II: women treated for BV with antibiotics and prolonged administration of EcoVag® (BV EcoVag®), women treated for VVC with fluconazole and prolonged administration of EcoVag® (VVC EcoVag®), women treated for VVC with fluconazole only (VVC fluconazole). The difference in frequency of isolation of EcoVag® strains or other lactobacilli between cured women and woman with relapse (until 6-month follow up) was compared by Fisher’s exact test. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001
