A member asked:
Can your bath/tap water give you bacterial vaganosis? like something in the water keeps triggering ongoing bv.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Rare cases: Very rare that tap water might be not treated or have any microorganism in it, best is to get it examined to take a swap for culture and proper medication.
