I've suffered from bv before. I searched and searched for a "cure"... I went to earthclinic.com. AMAZING SITE.... (NOT TO DISCREDIT THE GREATNESS OF CUREZONE...) but I found an answer... 3% HYDROGEN PEROXIDE!! YES. HYDROGEN PEROXIDE...**DILUTED WITH WATER** NEVER, EVER, EVER FULL STRENGTH. Takes away the smell & symptoms after 1USE!!!! of course you have to douche more than 1 time..but IT IS A MIRACLE!!! I KID YOU NOT!! TRY IT!! YOU'LL THANK ME LATER... JUST GOOGLE IT. TYPE IN YOUR SEARCH BAR... Hydrogen Peroxide for Bacterial Vaginosis/Vaginitis....(I don't really honestly know the difference between the two...I guess their cousins..(they're both bad...) but....look at all the information on the subject. If I ever get those symptoms of bv... HYDROGEN PEROXIDE...THE KIND YOU BUY FROM WALGREENS, WALMART...WHEREEVER. I normally see it in a brown bottle. Ratio?? I have the red douche/enema bag kit from Walgreens. I put in about....Ummm... let's say...1/4 cup of Hydrogen Peroxide... fill the rest up with purified water, bottled water basically. Not sure if tap water is good, it's just my preference really. Then when in the shower... I just douche the whole bag. It works for me. No smell afterwards, you have to do it a few times, like maybe 3-4 days straight before it's 'ALL GONE"...or at least all symptoms are "cleared up"...but it works LIKE A CHARM!! HOPE THIS HELPS! IT DID FOR ME!!!!    BE WELL EVERYONE.  GOD BLESS.
