I've Always Been Prone to getting bacterial vaginosis and it irritates me so bad... When I'm tested for it they give me flagyl or the clear gel ... The flagyl pills taste horrible and sometimes the gel is too high for me to buy because I don't have health insurance . After I am treated for BV this time how can I make sure it stays gone. I like having a clean vagina and being free of BV lol I'm a health freak when it come to my vagina And I don't know what causes it to always come about every once in a while. It's annoying.
