The role of Lactobacilli in the vaginal ecosystem is discussed. The variety of their quantity and morphotypes in conjunction with the hormonal status and vaginal microbiocenosis disorders is described. The microbiological evaluation of vaginal swab with the use of Nugent’s scoring method is compared with the vaginal wet mount microscopy.
