    Poor thing sad you aren't alone. I know that antibiotics don't work for all of us including myslef, but have you seen a gynecologist and atleast give them a try? Some women find that using the metro gel for 5 straight days and then every 3 to 4 days at bed time helped them. Hang in there!!

      I encourage you to see a gyno just to see if maybe there are other health issues you can adress. Don't wear tampons to cover the smell. It just makes it worse when you take it off. Try sleeping with no underwear to let it air out. For temporary relief and easy to do at home try filling tub of very hot water and sea salt. Sit in it for half an hour morning and night. It won't be a permanent solution but it will help the smell Untill you see a doctor. Also what I've tried is taking acidophilus probiotics. But please see a gyno. Even if you have to go by yourself. Health is first!

    I want to add a little something that I've discovered in my battle with BV. After trying anything people recommended the only things that worked for me were, boric acid suppositories, d-mannose, and going gluten free.

    The boric acid and d-mannose were great because they take'd away the symptoms within a half hour but they'd come back the same day or by the next day. After finding another post by someone talking about a link between BV and gluten I decided to give it a try. I went gluten free for about three days and had NO SIGN of BV. The fourth day I ate something and within an hour I was starting to feel the symptoms of BV again. I knew everything I ate was gluten free except I had put soy sauce on it. I looked at the soy sauce label and discovered it had gluten! That was a clear sign that it was indeed the gluten giving me BV. 

    I've been gluten free for three months and free from the terrible symptoms of BV. 

    When I slip up and have a little gluten I will use the boric acid suppository and d-mannose for quick relief. 

    Because BV is caused by a ph imalance it is important to stay away from too much acidic food and beverages such as too much tomato sauce and alcohol. 

    FIY: You can make your own boric acid suppositories. Purchase medical grade boric acid and empty capsuals then fill them yourself. I purchase mine on Amazon. Much cheaper then buying the ones already filled. I will insert one every twelve hours when I have a flare up. Make sure to wear a panty liner!

    I really hope this helps some of you women.

    the reason why you're having the itch is because of wheat. We become allergic to wheat over time so cut it out and the itch will stop.
