Bacterial Vaganosis Help! Can't stand it!

problems but yeast infections. When I was 26 I got off of the normal forms of birth control and I had a ten year copper IUD put in. Shortly after I started suffering with bv. I was at the doctor almost every week and I would always ask if my IUD could cause it since I knew when it started. Of course they would always tell me no. After 4 years of trying all the antibiotics and home remedies I decided to have my IUD removed because by this time I was positive that it was causing me to get bv because I would get it even if I didn't have sex. After having it removed I used a peroxide and water douche (more water than peroxide or it will burn) for about a week because peroxide is naturally found in the vagina so it does no harm and it also kills off bacteria. I also stopped using tampons for a while. It's been a year and a half and I haven't had a reoccurrence. My and my partner can even have unprotected sex and it doesn't come back. My IUD was causing it and the reason is because my body saw the IUD as a foreign object so as my body tried to fight off what it thought to be a foreign object it upset the natural floral in my vagina allowing a perfect environment for bad bacteria to grow. Think back to the first time it started and if you have any kind of internal birth control you may want to consider having it removed to see if anything changes. A week after removing mine and douching with the peroxide and water it was all gone thank God. Fyi...the doctors will continue to give you the antibiotics just to make money although the medicine will never cure you and the constant use of antibiotics can do more harm than help in the long run. 

Hi, I to suffered from bv from the age of 26-30. I had been on different types of birth control (pills, shot, and patch) since I was 18 and never really had any problems but yeast infections. When I was 26 I got off of the normal forms of birth control and I had a ten year copper IUD put in. Shortly after I started suffering with bv. I was at the doctor almost every week and I would always ask if my IUD could cause it since I knew when it started. Of course they would always tell me no.

I just wanna know can you use monistat while on antibiotics for BV😕

I am 18 and I'm scared i don't know what's wrong with my body constantly rejecting the pills nothing seems to be working and this is also hurting my dating life I try to keep my vagina clean as possible but it just seems to not be enough and now it's causing my self esteem to be really just gone I don't go out on dates or see anyone I hate going outside cause I think everyone is going to smell it or if I have sex they will no I guess I just want to know did you ever get cured
