Yes it's true, I stop my pill birth control and I have been free of bv for months. I did everything to cure my bv...not thinking that my birth control was messing with my balance down there. I took probiotic pills, changed my diet and I did a lot and all I had to do was stop those damn pills. I did like the comfort of knowing I was protected from childness, but it's not worth living with a constant itch down there.
