Does kidney infection has to do anything with getting Bacterial Vaginosis?

I’m asking this because a while ago I had UTI, and I went to the doctors and treated it with antibiotics, but sometimes I feel a little pain on my sides, and I almost have bacterial vagonosis all the time now… I was just wondering maybe it’s cause my kidneys aren’t working properly??I’m 19 years old btw
thanks

That is a question you should ask your doctor. Here is an snswer that I found from the Mayo Clinic. It’s a little long and it may tell you more than you wanted to know.

Definition
Bacterial vaginosis is a type of vaginal inflammation that results from the overgrowth of one of several types of bacteria normally present in the vagina, upsetting the natural balance of vaginal bacteria.
Women in their reproductive years are most commonly affected by bacterial vaginosis, but any woman can experience the condition. Doctors don’t know exactly why bacterial vaginosis develops, but certain activities, such as unprotected sexual intercourse or frequent douching, put you at higher risk of the condition.

Symptoms
Bacterial vaginosis signs and symptoms may include:
Vaginal discharge that’s thin and grayish white
Foul-smelling "fishy" vaginal odor, especially after sexual intercourse
Vaginal itching or irritation
Pain during intercourse
Burning during urination
Light vaginal bleeding
Often, you may have bacterial vaginosis and be asymptomatic — showing no signs and experiencing no symptoms.
I don’t think the two issues are related
