Dating a guy and engaged in sex now I think I have Bacterial Vaginosis?
I’ve been dating a guy and we have sex often. I’ve only had one sex partner and we both were virgins and clean. The guy I am dating now, has had more than one partner but has been tested and is negative for any stds and such.
I’m on birth control and he doesn’t use a condom – First
time we had sex was fine but after a couple days I guess I began to smell something fishy and I was itchy in my vagina.
I thought it might be a yeast infection but I knew it couldn’t be a yeast infection since usually I smell sweet not fishy. I waited a few days, and it cleared up – not itchy or smelling.
However I had sex with him again.. and now it’s back to being slightly itchy and kind of fishy.
I’m not sure what’s going on, could it be bacterial vaginosis?
Or stress (because I have been stressed greatly since I have been dating him and have been dealing with family issues and school)
I have read that people often get BV from having a new sex partner, what does that mean?
If it is bacterial vaginosis is it serious and can it go away without treatment? Or is it necessary to get treatment?
I also have never had a fishy smell from my vagina before until now – only sweet smells from yeast infections.
and he doesn’t finish in me.

Everyone should report Deborah’s answer to have it removed.
If you have a chronic yeast problem you may have something else going on the fish thing try washing yourself out after sex with warm water in a bottle get that stuff out quicker.
