Answer

The only time I’ve ever suffered from recurrent BV was when i was using summer’s even (the spray & the body wash). Once i stopped using that, i stopped getting BV.

Answer

I used these when symptoms came back and also took like 3 strong women’s probiotic capsules a day,  but the only thing that finally cleared up my recurring BV was getting my copper IUD removed. I was right at the 5 year mark and we wanted to start TTC at some point anyway, so as soon as I read that that could possibly be the cause, I got it removed. I haven’t had it even once since, thankfully!

Answer

I used to get it regularly. I can no longer use anything internally, menstrual products, toys etc. Even condoms and (once everyone is tested) new partners cause it. Boric acid after my period seems to do the trick. I get the Honey Pot suppositories because they have a bunch of good stuff in there. I only need a few days worth, not the full 7 day regimen, but you’ll need to play around with it. Also get a good probiotic, they have ones specifically targeted for vaginal health.

Answer

What precaution? Sometimes this is what causes the problem.

Answer

This will help your vaginal flora and hopefully prevent BV :)

Answer

I think I get bv every now and then without even knowing when I go to my gynecologist visits they see some of it in my test results but they say it’s like at it’s end I don’t do anything in specific lol it just comes and goes for me.
