BV will not go away! HELP!
Posted , 29 users are following.
5 months ago I started dating someone new. The first few weeks that we started having unprotected sex, everything was fine. 7 weeks ago I started noticing a terrible smell after sex. (Super embarrassing)
I made myself a doctors appointment to get checked. I'm STD/HIV free but I was positive for Bacterial Vaginosis.
I was first put on Metronidazole (Flagyl) and got zero results. The next antibiotic was Tinidazole, didn't help either. I was just prescribed Metronidazole Gel and was told to insert it for 7 days before bedtime. (Tonight being my first night)
TO GET TO THE POINT!
Has anyone had this happen? I won't even have sex with my partner because of the smell. (TMI)
I'm extremely frustrated that nothing is working.
Any advice!?

it is a HORRIBlE thing! what I found that worked was taking a womens probiotic and Vitamin C WITH rose hips 500mg . just 2 vitamins and the smell went away within days. Then gradually all of the other symptoms went away as well. almost a year later i stopped taking the vitamins and within months i got it again. Got put on antibiotics and nothing helped. changed my water drinking habits and took my vitamins again and it went away. hope this helps. I know it has been months, but I want to help other ladies with this issue.
