Don't mess around: Check with your OB or midwife about further treatment. Please be aggressive in treating BV since it can increase the risk of prematurity. Please stick with your own ob's recommendations. Look into ways of preventing bv. See http://www.Cdc.Gov/std/bv/stdfact-bacterial-vaginosis.Htm.
