A member asked:
Can scented pads cause bacterial vaginosis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely: BV may be caused by alterations in the acid content of the vagina and the growth of bacteria in the vagina because of these changes, although there is debate about this, and experts are not sure why bacteria in the vagina get out of balance. Scented pads are not likely to be causing this.
