I hear yogurt is excellent for treating BV. You can actually dilute it with water and use it as a douche. Plain yogurt of course! It’s not transferable from partner to partner. Some causes could be wearing tight clothing, taking bubble baths, not wiping from front to back, excessive douching or just overall poor hygiene. OTC acidophilus tablets work well also.
You need antibiotic sweety
I’m not sure of the condition but drinking cranberry juice and eating plain yogurt will help. cranberry fights infection and cleanses you out…my gyno told me yogurt had good bacteria that would affect the bad bacteria
Bacterial Wha?????
antibacterial and antiseptics are good for home treatment..Herbs have been known to help with this…they are..barberry root,cinnamon,oak bark,garlic…there are numerous others that help..It is contagious..and with women with low immune systems it is easily contracted
There is no home treatment..you need Flagyl (Brand name) it is a overgrowth of bacteria that be caused by unknown source..some of the reasons women get BV is douching, a reaction to soaps, ?spermicides in condoms, illness, and some of the time its anyone’ guess..but it isn’ t a STD..so you can’t blame your partner..men don’t get BV..it usually present with discharge and odor.
it can be a bitch, my girlfriend had it forever. it doesnt do anything to guys. she got it from taking an antibiotic, but there are other causes as well. if youve taken an antibiotic recently, it kills off the "good bacteria" that normally live there and take up space and resources so bad bacteria cant grow there. when the good bacteria are killed by an antibiotic, the bad bacteria can then grow more easily, which causes BV. she had to take several drugs and then finally got rid of it from boric acid suppositories, it took like 4 months though. i think most people get rid of it though after a round or two of antibiotics, theyll probably start you on metronidiazole or metro gel
