I had BV for maybe 1 month and I did a lot of research. I have done everything ! One thing I would never do is douche. That's horrible. But anyways I found the cure it's so simply !

1 glass of warm water and squeeze half a lemon inside.

Drink 3 glasses a day!

Then thought out the day drink at least 5 glasses of water to stay hydrated and to flush out the bad bactira.

Lemon ph is 2 very acidic

So it kills the bad Bactria so that good ones can grow.

Make sure u don't eat anything that has sugar bcuz that's can make the bad Bactria grow more.

Stay off sweets, no junk food. Only healthy whole Wheats.

Try to only drink water!

    lemon is acidic out of the body and alkaline when entering. Thats why it is used a lot to detox. It is the alkaline that is helping NOT the acid. Yes the lemon can help due to its alkaline properties. Please research your info as people might look up something that is acidic and this will make it worse.

    thought i would chip in as i found this thread last night as i have been suffering for a few months and recent treatments hadn't been working. i wanted to know if anyone recently had success with the lemon and water, thought it was simple enough to give it a try and update.

    ive been using balance activ pessaries this week and saw some relief after day 1 but symptoms came back following that even though i had continued treatment. ive eaten yoghurt everyday this week to see if that helps and ordered probiotics which i took my first yesterday afternoon when they arrived.

    i used a pessary last night, and because im due to wash my hair tonight i didnt shower this morning. (I use ph neutral products to wash with)

    i also had a hot water and lemon this morning as we had lemons in and i thought why not! and i kid you not, my symptoms ARE SO MUCH BETTER today. so i had another lemon water this afternoon!

    Fingers crossed this continues! But now im not sure if its because i

    a) didnt shower this morning (maybe gave the treatment longer to work) or the products arent working?

    b) probiotics

    c) increased yoghurt consumption

    d) lemon water

    or

    a mix of it all!

    Good evening ladies,

    I would like to say that I myself suffered with BV for years. Every GYN visit a prescription of metrogel was given either in pill or gel The pill was so disgusting and unbearable. Years went by....GYN visits exam always came back bacteria infection. I was so disappointed because I felt as though I had no life. I went years using pads or panty liners. It was an embarrassing feeling getting discharge often and watery discharge. I decided that metrogel and GYN visits was not helping me.

    Therefore, I looked into lemon and YES IT WORKS NO MORE DISCHARGE MY SEX LIFE IS BETTER NO DISCHARGE. I drink hot water with lemon on an empty stomach every morning. I also take vitamin C and vitamin D. I also take folic acid 400 mg on occasion not often. I have never felt so happy with the results Ladies do your research there is always a solution for everything and I could attest to that. Lemon helped my livelihood no more tears..no more EMBARRASSMENT JUST A SIGN OF RELIEF. Believe ME THE LEMON is my cure. I suffered for years BV not anymore. Lemon has its benefits.

    Do you think taking a vitamin c tablet orally would help too ?

    I have had this for over a year and am so depressed over this I have done so much from taking metronidazole gel inserts to taking the metro pills Ive even taken Solosec which is this medicine mixture you put in a yogurt Im tired of taking all these antobiotics as they are bandaid to this as it has come back constantly I have recurrent BV as it keeps coming back that there isnt a day or wk to where im not paranoid Ive drank a ton lemon waters that now thats all i drink . And it still comes back Ive even taken shots of apple cider vinegar and then also diluted a teaspoon of that in my glass of water too. Ive even put 1 cup of warm water to two tablespoons of Apple cider vinegar and poured it on the vagina (outside rinsing) as i read that online too. And also taken a bath with it. All of this i read online. ive even cut out sugar. i take probiotics every nt and now also cranberry pills too. Nothing works as this is constantly coming back as sometimes i have this all month and every month or every other. Its to the pt i feel helpless and feel like there is no answer. As im sure just like many of you, you have become a pro at looking this online to what will help. im desperate!!! i dont even want my husband to go down on me and i always feel so self consious . i notice the cervical mucus constistancy be more amd sometimes more wet or grayish tint. Or just (sorry tmi) but oozing white like mayo. its horrible . For me it doesnt always smell Its more of me knowing that im oozing down there. Ive also taken boric acid too. Im just so fed up. I wish there was more studies going into this as womens health needs answers as to live thru this for year(s) is beyond frustrating and depressing.

      Have you even thought about going on a strict paleo or keto diet for a while? A diet high in carbs is supposedly bad for BV.

      Hi everyone,

      BV completely sucks! Ive struggled with this for 10 years plus. It goes away with meds but it comes back. I got tired of taking metro pills 500mg, then metrogel. The best medication that I used that worked in one day is called Clindesse. Its Clindamycin. Its not prescribed often because people can have bad reactions to it. Sex is usually the culprit of why it keeps coming back. Semen will throw the PH off in your vagina. Also doctors dont recommend but partners need to be treated too. Men would have would have to take the metro pills, again doctors are opposed to this but Ive read and there have been studies where men have been treated and the problem went away in women. Also multiple partners can be a factor. You may be faithful but unfortunately he or she may not. Also diet does play a role, and certain body washes. I only use plain DOVE, I dont use any fragrances down there none at all. That too can throw off the PH. I will try the lemon also, I tried the vinegar, yogurt, garlic etc. Didnt work but eveyone's body is different. Too much sugar always F$&$s things up so cut it completely when you have BV. So happy we have this forum to discuss this. Hope this helped!

    Hi,

    does it have to be warm water? I like to put lemons in the water and then store it in the fridge for a day, so its nice and cold during the day.

    Regards,

    Angie
