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.

ive suffered 23 years with bv. yes 23. i was 15 and im now 38. it has caused severe depression. nothing has worked. i tried it all every last suggestion. the only things that worked with flagyl, and boric acid. out of the 2 i prefer boric acid hands down(. flagyl tastes disgusting and takes 3x longer to work) the positives with boric acid?the odor is completly gone within 4-5 hours of inserting, and little discharge. the negative? if i have sex the odor is back in full force with 48 hrs. my first boyfriend i was with from 15-28. my second i was with 28-38 and i had the same exact issue with both of them. i got so desperate i had them treated as well which did absolutely nothing.

omg.. im so sorry, but at the same time i thought i was the only one who had had it for 20 years... so it isnt just me. this has ruined my life. it is still ruining my life.
the anger and depression i feel because of this has ruined relationships. ive been alone going on four years now, i got tired of making excuses or trying to explain why i couldnt have sex. if i didnt have children, i truly would have offed myself by now.
i have tried everything.. so so tired...

Nope here i was thinking i was the only one thats been suffering 20+ years. The longest i went without getting it was during pregnancy. The interesting part is i have read bv is MOST likely during pregnancy. im almost 6 months pregnant right now and havent had it once. i mentioned it to my new obgyn and he said "some women just are unlucky and unfortunatley will probably continue to get it untill menopause" so basicly ive lost hope unless

that would make me think that the increased estrogen may have something to do with it?

when i was younger and tried to take the pill, it caused me to have ocular migraines like 4 times a week. thats estrogen, maybe a correlation?
idk, im at my wits end with this. im just soooo tired. im tired of feelimg disgusted at myself, and i do. i cant help it. i havent been in a relationship in over 3 years now, got tired of making excuses.
i dont even know what to do anymore short of just staying alone til i die.
it makes me depressed, it makes me mad.

I've been at the same low it's been 4 years without a man because of bv
I've locked myself away for 9 months I've not been to see family its controlled my whole life .
I'm ok for now but the last 2 weeks have been hell I thought bv was at its worse but I was wrong .
I was imagining the smell I've been thru hell bv has literally sent me crazy where I've been hallucinating the smell .
I've felt everything you have felt I felt disgusting about myself.
what have you tried so far?

Having BV is very frustrating especially when you have gone to doctors for answers and treatment. I have been suffering with it for years, on and off but i no longer go to the doctors for it because I've created a douche to treat it. Now douching is bad but necessary so i only use it when needed. i have also cut back a lot on sugary foods... and carbs....I also figured out that when i get BV its usually after my menstrual after using tampons.... little particles of the cotton from the tampon is left in me....There are other factors that causes me to get BV as well... keeping dry down there with liners will definitely help especially if you sweat a lot. Ok..... the douche that i make is this..... First.... using a clean douche bottle.... i put 1/2 teaspoon of acv and pour 3% peroxide until the douche bottle is half full... then fill the rest with warm water... douche as usual....
The smell and discharge is gone immediately... for me anyway.... i may use this every few months if i need to or if i use tampons after my cycle leaves... But this douche usually clean me up good....

Try the mixture of the douche that i mentioned.... Also... look up black seed oil.... its a very powerful oil.... you take the liquid form not the pills.... liquid is usually on point... its suppose to be the cure of all disease.... thats what they say but i do know it can help with a lot of issues.... Also.... adding a few cups of acv to your bath water can keep you somewhat fresh. I hope you find a solution for this problem... keep your head up.... Something is bound to work. Black seed oil should work... Give it a try. Ive been taking it for the pass few months and wow....game changer. Good luck.

Hi, I'm a 30 year old black woman (if that makes a difference). I had BV for years and it was a very resistant strain. The perscriptions only worked temporarily and it was the most frustraing thing ever. I tried everything (home remedies) bc i knew i did not want to live with this for the rest of my life. Somebody told me to boil and douche garlic powder and it helped alot and got it under control but it would still come back from time to time. I found out about v-steaming and i finally got my life back. I went with this company I found on instagram called Dream Steam Herbs bc they seemed the most knowledgeable. I direct messaged them and they gave me a free consultation mapped out what was going in with me, told me which formula to get and gave me a protocol. I v-steamed for two weeks and a huge green glob if grossness came out of me and I've been freed from BV ever since. I just wanted to share bc i know the hell first hand and this gave me my life back. The ppl on that insta page are a godsend and really knowledgable. Best wishes.

would you mind sharing the website? I have heard of vaginal steaming and would like to try it, however there are so many different companies that I am apprehensive as to which one to try.
