Bv first trimester

I’m in my first trimester and i have bv. I’ve always been prone to this infection for the last two years since starting nexplanon. My doctor doesn’t want to treat it until my second trimester. I know it’s beneficial to wait but it can also be a bad thing to wait as well. I am so uncomfortable i need relief now before i make it worse 😭 when i wasn’t pregnant I used to insert boric acid capsules around the times i was most likely to catch it and it helped so much! Of course now i can’t do that! I’ve been wiping with witch hazel wipes to stay clean and dry, I feel amazing for a hour or two then I have to do it all over again & I feel like overtime that will just make it worse as well. I cannot sleep with this gross infection, is it worth going to the er?

I had a mmc in nov due to bv and I was only 6 weeks. My ob swabbed me the other day ( I’m 5 weeks) and I have it again, he is treating it now. I would get a second opinion
