Was previously found to have BV but was asymptomatic. Have chronic joint pain and stiffness.Could BV cause this, even though vagina is self-contained?
Could not shaving my vagina cause infections like yeast and bv? I've been getting it a lot and i can't take it anymore. I use pH soap for my vagina
So, we all do have bad bacterias in Vagina and other parts of out bodies. I wonder, do people who had chronic BV, but are infection-free now, generally have more bad bacterias all the time than people who didnt have Chronic BV?
