Has anyone experienced BV?

Question

Has anyone ever experienced BV ( bacterial vaginosis ) before? This is my first time having it. Can y’all tell what to expect? I did go to the doctors and they gave me pills for it. Is your discharge supposed to leak out? Are you supposed to be spotting?

Answer

The problem with BV is that it's hard to fully get rid of. For most woman it comes back worse after antibiotics, my gyno recommend that I also use boric acid vaginal suppositories with the antibiotics to try to not let it come back.
 Antibiotics can also cause a yeast infection after so make sure you take probiotics, such as the RePHresh brand.
Dont use vaginal soaps, tampons, use douches or tight clothes.
Drink lots of water, cut back on sugar that usually makes it worse, if you're wearing pads or panty liners change them more often than usual. Ice packs help if it ever gets too bad.

Answer

Yes I had it two months straight! I wasn’t even pregnant. Drink a lot of water and take yourself to the doctor to get the right stuff.
