Nothing works!!! Help!!!

Posted , 29 users are following.

Ok so I have been suffering with chronic bv for 3 years now. My mind and body is Sooo tired!!! I don't know what else to do I have tries everything and nothing has worked. I'm tired of wasting money on things that don't work. I feel like I'm gonna b stuck like this for the rest of my life and I don't think I can handle that I've suffered long enough. I just want to b normal again!!! Why doesn't anything work!?!? I'm losing my mind literally. I don't know what else to try does anybody have any suggestions. I've tried lemon and water, boric acid, several antibiotics, yogurt, vinegar, peroxide, gels, salt baths and tea tree oil. Also probiotics and nothing!! My main issue is the ODOR it won't go away!!! Oh and also my doc done a procedure where he frozen my cervix and that didn't work either so I'm desperate I'm tired of being embarrassed and getting made fun of. My children hears and sees all this its so heartbreaking how people in this world are about things.

    I understand what you're going through. I've done all of the following that you've listed. So now, I'm trying Black Cumin Seed Oil.. you can look it up on YouTube to see where to order it from because if I post the site, they will delete my comment and possibly your discussion. I use a thing that comes in the metro gel container to insert the oil, I fill it up and insert it and wear a panty liner for 2 hours. I also intake 2 tbsp a day of it. Get a glass of warm water, 1 tbsp and 1 tbsp of organic unfiltered honey and mix it. Drink 30 minutes to a hour before breakfast and do the same thing before bed. BUT TYPE IN SOLOSEC SYBIOMIX in your Google bar. It'll make you have hope again. Talk to your gynecologist.

    Jesus, I’m praying for us too...I’m going to a Naturalist next week. It’s 350 and I will share what she has in store for Killing the E Coli...I called her office and she talked to me for 30 minutes. I can’t even go in my dr and speak for 15 minutes and they care and I’ve seen 4 doctors, 2 NP,1 Primary Care Ohysician and 1 Physician Assistant in 26 months. I was on another site a lady said Ibuprophen kill bacteria popped one in with a Vaginal Prebiotics now it hurts more;so I feel you. I’m using Vaginal Prebiotics until I see the Naturalist hopefully this soreness will be gone before she gives me and exam. It’s too sore to touch now...I also read on another Women’s Health site E. coli isn’t BV it’s AV and something called Desquamative Inflammatory Vagintist and these doctors aren’t treating our problem correctly. She was prescribed Vitamin D, Folgard RX( Vitamin B12,Folic Acid and Vitamin B6). Another lady used Canested Pessary Vaginal Suppositories , It’s some sort of Bees Wax that’s a Antimicrobial and Antifungal...another woman used Boric Acid 400mg/ Estradiol 3mg/ Acidophilus 200mg compounded twice a day for a week. I know this is expensive;I’ve spent like 3000 from all these different doctors who are clueless and just want me to accept this because it isn’t too bad. I’m loosing it too and I took off work an entire week Sick Leave because I’m hurting and frustrated. I will pay to be able to stop wearing pads every day of my life and to end this disease.🙏🏽 Call me we can talk,I know God doesn’t mean for us to suffer like this Stay Strong. We gotta be here for each other💓

    saj72607 have you tried changing your diet to plantbase? I've had bv for over a year. I know how you feel. I'm still going through the battle of bv. I've changed my diet to a plantbase diet 6 weeks ago and I see a difference in the consistency of bv. It looks as if it's getting lesser as time goes by. Also for smell stay away from caffeine that activates my bv and refined sugars.

    Take apple cider vinegar baths.

      Yes. I don't really eat lots of sweets and I've tried the vinegar baths they never worked for me

    Dear Saj

    For one thing I was told not to ever put anything into my vagina. That can change your pH and that causes BV.  I soak in a tub 4 times a week, twice a day with apple cider vinegar only.  I do not put anything into my vagina. Ever.  Or you can also use baking soda in the bath.  I also do Probiotics every day. Orally.  Boric acid is not good because it changes the pH to acid.  That is not helpful to normal vaginal flora.  STOP using things in vagina. Try using just natural baking soda in the bath twice a day every day for 2 weeks and see if that helps. My doctor told me that after we have used all different types of products, our vaginas are so messed up, it takes weeks for them to recover. Maybe bring a squirt bottle with you everywhere you go. A mixture of baking soda and water only. Use that throughout the day to fight the odor.   And to hell with anyone who says anything! They are being cruel and stupid!!   It is a medical disorder and no one should be sayiing anything!!  Keep your squirt bottle with you.   Keep spraying... baking soda,, or apple cider vinegar... The vinegar should DEFINITELY stop the odor!  We care about you here!  Let us know how you are doing.  Give it time...lots of time.  If you insist on using something internally, then try water only. Nothing else.  Hopefully that will help.  It will take a long time to get things back to normal... especially if you have been using lots of things for a long time. But I certainly understand! It's very frustrating!  I care about you. DEbi

      Thank u that means alot. I just wish for once I can find something that works. I hate even leaving my house because every time I am around people when I walk by they cough or make some comment. Its so embarrassing and my kids see these things I want to be better for my family so bad!!! I have suffered long enough with this and these doctors act like its not a big deal but their not the ones that's having to walk around like this. I want to be able to take a shower and actually feel clean. I have always been a clean person and no matter how much I wash down there the smell is still there I can't get it to go away and right now its horrible!

      Nothing works...I’m tired of paying thousands for it to come back 2 weeks,2 days or 2 hours later...I guess no sex until I die...so embarrassed to be around anyone...I don’t trust myself for doing this to myself...

      I understand your plan. Ive had bv for a year now and I sometimes felt as if nothing works to cure it. What I did learned after paying close attention to my diet fir 3 months is, there are foods and drinks that triggers it. For me it was smoking, coffee,and sweets. Also I noticed being under stress causes more discharge in my case. All our bv cases are different but the best thing to do is still make some changes on what you eat, dealing with stress and your interactions with people. I don't have the cure for bv right now but changing things in your life makes the consistency of it lessen. Honestly like you I'm not going to spend money o n products that barely work. A diet rich in probi otics, prebotics, vitamins and folate works wonders.

    Hi everyone. I JUST made an account to share my remedies and what has been working for me. First off, I am not a healthcare professional, although I am in school studying to be one.

    I have had chronic bv over for a year now. My partner and I have been tested for everything else and its alway come back bv. i am currently trying to conceive, so I noticed I would always get a smell after unprotected sex, especially if my partner came inside. The smell would always come 2 days later. I kept a log of every little change so it was ALWAYS LITERALLY two days after sex. So I started thinking okay maybe it’s his sperm throwing my ph off. I tried everything from Probiotics , to higher dosage probiotics, boric acid, antibiotics (metronidazole), acv baths, daily vitamins, yogurt, ph balancing gels. And even though it would go away after a course of treatment , it came Right friggen Back!

    Well. Here’s the life changer.

    I stumbled upon Black Seed Oil and it’s benefits but I didn’t find much info about its interaction with bv. I bought some cold pressed black seed oil from my local GNC, and I FORCED my partner to take some with me everyday, lol, like baby you better take some it’s good for you and me 😄

    So It’s been about two weeks since we both have been taking it, EVERYDAY, haven’t missed a day, two teaspoons a day the most but at least one teaspoon!! GUYS. I kid you not, I believe this stuff right here is really working for me. Let me tell you why.

    We had sex the other night, and he came inside. It’s been 5 days since and I have no smell, NO SIGN OF BV!!! Each day that goes by , I am literally celebrating to have no sign lol. So based on my personal remedy, I believe Black seed oil, taken by both of us, my partner and I, have eliminated my chance of bv.

    Here is my current list of supplements I take:

    *Two teaspoons of Black seed oil daily

    Jarrow Jarro-Dophilus Probiotics 5 billion (two each day after sex for 3 days, then one daily)

    Daily prenatal vitamin (not sure if this has any effect)

    Evening Primrose oil (take for other reasons but not sure if this has any effect)

    I also try to wear no underwear as much as possible, especially after a shower, after sex, or sleeping. Ventilation is important *

    If I wear underwear, cotton only.

    I use water only to clean down there. Sometimes I use summers eve because I have never had a bv type of reaction from it. Some research says it can make it worse but I have not encountered that.

    My diet was regular, fast food here and there, homemade balancing meals. I also dranked a lot of water.

    The days following sex, I was heavily drinking ensures (nutritional shakes) . Maybe those boosts of nutrients helped. I don’t know. Just trying to be as thorough as possible.

    — I hope I was as detailed as possible and I hope Black Seed Oil will give you all some relief because right now!!! I AM SO RELIEVED!!

    Hi, are you taking birth control? I struggled with odor for years, antibiotics worked but I was never actually tested positive for BV or anything else. Recently, I had more tests and the doctor said that it could be the mini pill causing it. I read up on it and it said that the hormones in the pill can alter your PH level. So I decided to stop taking it 9 days ago. Guess what? no fishy smell. (dont wanna jinx it lol)

    I thought I'd share this because not one doc warned me before I started taking it, and because I had suffered with odor before taking birth control I never thought it would be related.

    However, I used to wash with scented soaps and gels which is a big no. I now only wash with water.
