Caused by certain partner? His bacteria hates me?

I got BV over a year ago.. I never had issues down below before. Was in a long-term relationship with no ill effects. I end up having a new partner and I used a condom but he gave me oral sex and used his hands which I felt gave me the BV. It was disgusting I thought I was dying because the smell was horrendous. The doctor prescribed Klion-D 100 which cleared it up right away. I never got BV again, happy to say I never slept wit the guy, its all about hygiene, the minute I met that guy he never seemed like the clean type, God alone knows why I slept wit him..

I think this may useful for anyone suffering BV. I have had BV 3 times in year. The only thing that clears it is antibiotics, but the last case clindamycin did not clear it. I tried to think of a trigger, and had no idea why I kept getting it. My doctor started me on a antihistermine, called fexofenadine, this was for my allergies, but actually cured by BV! Antihistermines are known to dry secretions in the body, including the vagina, I would much rather have a fry vagina then a smelly one! Hope this helps, it certainly helped me! 

This is an interesting thread. I have only ever been with my SO my entire life. I have never done anything sexual with anybody else ever. I'm in my 30s. We have never used condoms. We eat really healthy and don't drink or smoke. I've never douched. Well, a year ago he cheated on me, felt guilty and told me about it right after. I got BV for the first time ever and have had it 4 times since. I was tested for everything under the sun and Dr said i dont have an STI. If it is an imbalance of the bacteria, it would make sense that the other woman's bacteria was introduced to my husband (who shows no symptoms), but passed the different flora to me which screwed mine up. Even with me being treated, I would think he would need to be treated too to reset the bacteria, so to speak. Otherwise, its just going to be given back to me again and again by him even though that was his one and only encounter (one night stand). Idk, just my thought . I could be wrong, but nothing else has changed for us.

I’ve went  through this difficult situation many times in my life. Each time it occurred, it was either a new partner or my partner cheated . It will not resolve itself if you keep the same partner and he isn’t treated with flagal . He has to take the pills and be treated along with you . Or you will continue to get the infection over and over no matter what . I had a partner that I stayed with on and off for 5yrs and in that time period I took more than my share of flagal . It was to the point I feared it would stop working and I’d be stuck with that horrific smell forever. Don’t believe them when they say it’s not sexually transmitted because that’s a lie and I know that from experience. I’ve never had a issue with my ph balance being off or bv until I dealt with this particular man. And when I got rid of the man I got rid of the problem . Yes my dr at one point gave me a additional prescription for him and yes! It solved the problem until he slept Around on me Again. And the issue returned. It was extremely frustrating to say the least and even more frustrating Is not only did I have to use condoms with him to avoid it . I also learned the hard way that if he gave me oral sex I’d still receive the infection from him. At one point the frustration almost had me in tears . I really take my health seriously and having a odor Is completely embarrassing. So if you find a dr whom will treat you both and he stays faithful you’ve got a winner . Otherwise good luck! 

I too had this problem. Each month I slept with him, I would get it.. took flagyl to get rid if it but it always came back. So I did my research. Probiotics and coconut oil helped. So I loaded up on it for a month b4 I saw him again. So... last time we did the deed. I am not feeling like it's BV but my labias are irritated like it's a yeast infection this time. He said he just went in for bloodwork and came back negative. I told him I think he needs to be tested through a urine sample. Would any of you agree with that or do you think the blood test suffices?

It’s your laundry detergent. Start washing your undies by hand with a very mild soap like woolite or baby soap for sensitive skin. Also pour apple cider vinegar in your bath water to soften your hard water and antioxidant your skin to a normal ph. Cut off sugar or sweets because your body is trying to tell you to detox. 

Also start grading your bath soap , preferably DOVE soap and place in a glass container to wash out your bathtub. Stop using harsh chemicals to clean your bathtub. Also wash all clothing with a soap that is ideal for sensitive skin. ALL for sensitive skin is a good soap or Drift for baby clothes. 

I need help we’re can I go I have Bv now 

I to havmad this problem after my ex and I broke up after 24 years . Then we started having sex a while after . I was getting horrible infections. I went to an urologist and he said ,he had to have sex with Someone else and also multiple partners . When someone you have been with for so long your body floras are in syncretism with each other . As soon as a partner has sex with Someone else your body floras are no longer in sync . Your body is fighting against his because his flora has changed because of body fluid exchange with another partner . That’s how I knew he was cheating and lieing
