[|AI|]  Hi, Chat Doctor.  I welcome you to Chat Doctor VIRTUAL CLINIC. I have gone through your question, and I think I have understood your concern. Furthermore, I will suggest you the best possible treatment options. Bacterial vaginosis is purely vaginal infection, and it is restricted to vagina only. Amniocentesis is done under USG guidance from abdominal side. So there is no vaginal connection. You came safely go ahead with amniocentesis and continue with treatment for bacterial vaginosis I hope this answer helps you. Thanks
