I keep my bv at bay with probiotics, but whenever I sweat or wear tight jeans, it comes back. I decided to try lactic acid suppositories with prebiotics. 2 days later, I had a yeast infection. I'm hesitant to use monistat because it can trigger bv, but I had no choice. I used monistat and it worked well. Now, bv is back. I'm so sick of this . I want to try the lactic acid suppositories again because they did seem to help but I'll get another yeast infection! Anyone else have this issue?
