Hipercromasia
The vagina is colonized by gram-positive rod-shaped
bacteria of the genus Lactobacillus. They are beneficial
because they produce lactic acid, which reduces the ambient
pH and possibly protects from infection by Candida
and other pathogens. Lactobacilli metabolize the glycogen
contained within exfoliated squamous cells. The resulting
cellular pattern, commonly seen during the second (luteal)
phase of the menstrual cycle, is known as cytolysis—bare
intermediate cell nuclei, fragments of squamous cytoplasm,
and abundant bacterial rods (Fig. 1.18). Cytolysis
