First and foremost, I have been struggling with bv for almost 15 years and I am 25. It began before I even started any sexual intercourse. After 15 years of taking antibiotics REPEATEDLY, a light bulb went off in my head in my college science class. We were discussing bacteria and antibiotics. I learned that antibiotics get weaker and weaker everytime you use them because the bacteria because resistant to the drug. It's called antibiotic resistant. Look it up. Thats why it seem like it comes right back after you feel like you cures yourself. Dr's really don't know themselves but by law, can they actually tell you that they don't know?? No, so they would rather keep taking our copays, prescribing us a damn (in other words) placebo. If men had a leaky, smelly penis and the infection happened REPEATEDLY. It would be all over the place. CDC, WORLD HEALTH HAZARD. I have def learned that most Dr's don't know anything about BV other than what their book taught them. I have learned more from other women going through the same, than any dr ever on this issue. WE HAVE TO STICK TOGETHER AND DO OUR OWN RESEARCH!!!!!!! THIS SHOULD BE AN EPIDEMIC! RANT OVER

    Omg :”( 15 years I cannot imagine... It Hasn’t even been a full year yet for me. I had one new partner and we didn’t use protection and had sex twice and after that I noticed the odor and clear discharge. Ever since then I’ve seen two dif. Doctors MANY times and no probiotic works.. I knew about the probiotics not working as well when taking them but I assumed that’s why they switched the types each time. It sucks so BADDD ! I cannot deal! I work with all men and I swear they’ve smelt it but I of course have to not say anything.... it’s so embarrassing. I’ve done it all! Everything possible to help it and it has got better but there is still a pungent odor. I know the CDC is looking at BV and deciding whether or not it’s considered a sexually transmitted disease, but they haven’t decided yet. To me that means (oh we’re making tons of money on this let’s not find a cure for it) smh!!!!

      I had the same problems and a friend told me about an asian remedy which I was able to track down and buy online.  It's a cigar shaped stick you insert for about a minute.  I was extremely skeptical after dealing with this problem for years and was ready to try anything.  I noticed within two days the odor had disappeared and mucous had lessened. It's been over 12 months now of just using this product for a few days in the first few weeks and I cannot believe it has not returned.  The product is called Isla Soap stick, I bought it online as I could not find it anywhere in chemists.  I think because it is like a chinese asian medicine.  Trust me it

    I personally suffered from BV for many years and how I got rid of it, was to stop consuming processed sugars, now am not going to say it was easy because it wasn't but I did it and it feels great.  No more itching, discharge, bad odor all gone.  If you want to learn more let me know.
