Re: Alternative Treaments for Bacterial Vaginosis

you are absolutely right, I have been suffering with bv for sometime now, I have been studying the mess for several years now, I have tried douching with a mixture of vinegar, peroxide, and tea tree oil, and then insert the acidophillis capsules. I feel so fresh afterwards then a couple days later after having sex and my husband ejaculating inside me several times it comes back, I also have the iud birth control which helps to throw your ph balance off in the vagina, I have also read that blood helps throw it off because blood is alkaline just like sperm which explains why everytime I get my period it bv comes back. I know that the smelly and wetness comes from liquid amines, harmful bacteria that prefers an alkalike environment and that anaerobes (bacteria that overgrows) dies if oxygen is present, hydrogen peroxide releases oxygen so this may be why hydrogen peroxide is helpful, I know that acidophillis pills helps bring back the good bacteria lactobacilli which is lactic acid (milk acid) and it is found in yogurt, cheese, sauerkraut, pickles, beer, wine, and cider and other fermented foods. I want to study more to get the perfect combination of the treatments I heard about to find a cure, there probably isn't a cure because your ph balance of the vagina can be thrown off by almost anything that you eat but there are just too many of us who are sufffering from this and it is very embarassing even with your own mate
