    It is contagious (doctors claim not from men) but can pass through sexual contact and I believe it is passed on by men. So If you think you have it and think you know who gave it to you, I would for sure use protection every time. 

    With BV once you have it, unfortunately for most women, it seems to stay. And get worse after sex, sometimes even with a condom. 

    So just be careful good luck

    The smell will intensify with sex I wouldn’t suggest it. Try a sea salt bath that has cured my bv. 7 cups of warm water and 1/2 cup of sea salt. You’ll thank me! The sea salt extracts toxins and bacteria from the vagina
