A member asked:

Hi i was diagnosed with bv and i'm taking my antibiotics and there's a really embarrassing onion smell that just won't leave. what can i do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

BV has odor: BV is known for its bad odor, and fortunately, you are already on treatment, which should help in a few days. Vaginal rinse or douching is not recommended, as it makes it more difficult for your body to establish an environment of friendly bacteria. Be assured that the odor is more noticeable to you, especially with toileting. If you do not get resolution, return to your doctor for alternate Rx
