I was pretty excited to come on this site to share what has cured me because i know how frustrating bv is and i am sure some of you have tried many things.

I had bv for 3 months. I am just now getting over it. I had gone to the doctors twice and have taken metronidazole and clindamycin. both intravaginal gels. Both gave me unwanted side effects and my symptoms came back after a week with both. I have also tried douching with h202 and vinegar for 5 days but it did not cure me while taking acidiphilus tablets and inserting two vaginally. It did not cure me. Little by little the itch would come back.

After a lot of research i was determined to fight this as I have seen many women have it for years and not have any solutions. Here are my findings and I am proud to say I am bv free! I take a vitamin b complex with folic acid 800, vitamin d3 5000iu and acidiphilus daily. do some research on it and test it out, i promise you wont be disappointed!

    Last night I tried the Vitamin C 500iud WITHOUT rosehip (dissolvable), and it worked!!! I felt ablsoutely no discomfort or anything, I just inserted one pill right insdie before i went to sleep & all day has been great! No odor, no discharge! I am so happy I could cry, now that i know this work!! I also decided to incorporate more vitamins and acidophilus into daily (which I also started today and picked up from my local dollar general) I felt very uncomfortable thinking about insertng Vitamin C directly inside, but hey I've tried so many other things, so why not this. AND THIS ACTUALLY WORKS. Thank you so much to the original poster of this. you're a life saver!

    thought I'd share my experience as I too felt alone in this situation but I don't suffer from bv although I thought it was ...

    I started experiencing a smell that wasn't fishy but was strong and unpleasant which completely knocked my confidence and ruined my relationship with my partner.. His semen had thrown off my vaginas ph balance and resulted in an unpleasant smell constantly.. Through my clothes at work was the worst. I used a ph balancing gel to get my flora back to normal but this was only temporary. I'v discovered the smell gets worse after I came off my period. I constantly felt paranoid that people could smell me and think I'm dirty. Btw I had been to the doctors and had tests done which proved I didn't have bv or any yeast infections etc. Results were clear. How could I get my ph balance and this horrific smell to go away?!

    Shortly before all this had happened I went to see a n allergen specialist who diagnosed me with candida issues and didn't think anything of it and prescribed me with b vitamins, oil of oregano and a 10 billion probiotic. I was skeptic about candida because of articles I had read saying it's not really a real issue. However months later I started taking 2 of the probiotics in the morning and a couple of hours later the oregano oil, vitamin b at lunch and then before bed again another oregano capsule. This has completely got rid of the bad smell. The probiotic promotes the good bacteria and the oregano kills the bad bacteria. This has created stable balance for my flora and I couldn't recommend anymore.

    I now have the confidence to start dating again and not worry. I had this issue for 3 months which came out of the blue until I started having results with these supplements. I hope this helps anyone who is in the same situation as me and has been told by their doctor that nothing is wrong with them. We know when somethings wrong and sometimes doctors don't know everything. These supplements need to be taken in the same day otherwise symptoms won't go away. I still take the same dosage now to keep any bad symptoms away. I hope this advice helps let me know of this has worked for others too smile

      Thanks for your message. The oregano was in small liquid capsules I take 2 probiotics first thing in the morning have breakfast. Then take oregano by itself with water and just before bed take oregano again with water. I try not too take them too close to big meals. I was symptom free after 3 days. I have now been symptom free for 3 weeks. Literally nothing else worked for me except this.

      Apparently, I have problems with Candida and BV, but never had any major problems with odor at all unless the BV gets really, really bad.  My big problem is vaginal pain, pain, pain and burning!!  I am using Rainforst Anti-Fungal and a very strong probiotic (50 billion Vaginal) and not seeing an end to this pain nightmare.  I am post menopausal and also taking HRT.

    Good morning ladies. This is my first time ever posting on ANY forum about BV. I want to tell you my story of how Vitamin C cured my BV but caused me to lose my boyfriend. I have suffered from BV since the age of 11. I am now 41. I have tried EVERY prescription remedy under the sun given by Doctors to no avail. They would cure the BV and sooner or later it was right back. Now about a two or three weeks ago I came across this forum and read about the benefits of inserting a, vitamin c tablet with rose hips into the vagina to cure BV. I went to the store right away and bought a bottle. The only ones I could find were the coated one's. It didn't matter because I was desperate! I had a new relationship with a wonderful man who I was head over heels about. I hadn't had sex since May 2014 and I had just started being intimate with him(and boy was the sex SUPERFANTABULOUS smile. He lives across the street from me so that was a double bonus! ). We were starting to be intimate every day and on one occasion I thought that I had smelled a whiff of BV, smh. Anyway, I inserted a vitamin C tablet one night. Early the next morning, I was at his home and we were being intimate. When we finished, I realized that my period had

      started. During cleanup, there were some clumps of discharge that looked odd (and bloody) so I assumed that maybe they were blood clots that the vagina discharges sometimes during your cycle. No big deal right? He went out of town the next day and was gone all week. Saturday, at the end of my cycle, I inserted another vitamin c in my vagina. Sunday evening around 11:30 pm I inserted a second vitamin c tablet in my vagina for good measure to ensure that the smell was completely gone. Monday morning around 7:00 am, we had sex and everything was great. Tuesday he called me and told me that when he cleaned up after I left there was some residue that had been left behind on the surface where we had sex. He said it appeared to be a broken condom with semen in it. Now I know that I hadn't been with anyone what since coming after my no sex hiatus and starting a relationship with him. I thought back to this forum and the types of discharges that the women had had after inserting the vitamin c tablet. I told him that what he must have saw was the binder of the vitamin c tablet(it was a coated tablet) and cervical or vaginal mucus due to the use of the vitamin c tablet. He didn't believe me, wouldn't even entertain the idea of letting me re insert another vitamin c tablet into my vagina to show him how the same thing would happen again, smh. After exposing in depth about BV, the constant battles of finding a cure and Vitamin c tablet, he told me that he still wasn't convinced and ended things with me.... So while I am very happy that I have been cured, I would urge all of you to inform your new partner of BV and everything that pertains to it early on in your relationship. I guess if BV isn't something that you have ever experienced or if you don't know about it, the things that we BV sufferers to cure ourselves would seem unbelievable or a little farfetched.....
