BV CURED!

Wat are the side effects of inserting vitamine c into the vagina? Worse case scenario?

Hi,What brand vitamin c did you use?

I have suffered from bv occasionally after sex due to bacteria from my butt somehow reaching my vjj. I have found tea tree suppositories and vitaminc does work well. Tea tree smells wonderful btw. Drs will tell you to refrain from home remedies because curing this will cause them to lose money. Ladies listen to your body, not prescriptians.

Hello I have suffered with bv for many years now and have tried many remedies but this is the first te I heard of vitamin c, so I tried it last night I used vitamin c 1000 and the smell was gone right away but I did notice this morning I woke up with what seems to be a yeast infection.. is that a normal side affect?

So, ive been reading these posts for the past few months but never actually posted myself. Ive been suffering with thrush and BV since I was 14. Im now 24 and quite frankly sick to death of it! My symptoms of thrush are usually just the intense itching. It does tend to go away with over the counter treatments. On the other hand, BV doesnt. For at least the past year I have had it permanently with only temporary relief (a few days, maybe a week at the most). My symptoms are usually thin, watery discharge and a fishy smell. (Sorry its gross and embarrassing but it may help a few other ladies as my post goes on) I have tried the anti biotics, the anti biotic gel (metrodinazole whatever you call it) clears the symptoms up every time but always comes back a few days after i stop taking it. I have also tried balance activ (the gel you buy over the counter) again gives me temporary relief. Same for apple cider vinegar baths and yogurt tampons. It is all pretty annoying really, but I think it would be easier to deal with if it wasnt for the smell. I literally shower and within half an hour its back. Its just so horrible to never feel clean. I did everything they reccomend, wiping front to back (I mean who doesnt do that apart from children, really?) Wearing cotton underwear, mild laundry detergent, not using soap. I always use aqueous cream, its the only thing that doesnt irritate me. Washing after intercourse etc etc. It just lingers. I get so paranoid other people can smell it that im constantly watching peoples facial expressions and keeping my distance. Anyhow... ill stop groaning, as I think I may have found a cure. I did some research, found out about the acidophilus and decided to order some capsules from amazon. Now these are the regular capsules, not the vaginal suppositories. I also ordered folic acid. I started taking them twice a day orally, and in all honesty I didnt notice a difference. I then read that you can use them vaginally, but I was scared it wouldnt dissolve. But, at this point I was desperate. So far I am on day 5 of inserting half a capsule of acidophilus. And ladies, there is no smell, no discharge, nothing. I have also been taking 1 capsule orally and continuing with 1 folic acid tablet. I think by day 3 my symptoms were gone, but today I got paranoid and wanted to just be sure. Ive had a pretty busy day today and I havent even caught a wiff of it. This is the cleanest I have felt in years. I have also stopped wearing under wear completely so Im wondering if thats making a difference too. Tomorrow Im going to be brave and not use insert anything and see how it goes. I just hope this isnt a temp fix like the rest.
