A member asked:
I had bacterial vaginosis during postpartum with my first baby. i am now 6 weeks postpartum with my second & i again have symptoms of bacterial vaginosis. what could be the cause?

The causes of BV are not well understood. There probably are several, including various vaginal manipulations, maybe labor and delivery itself. Vaginal lavage (douching) can trigger BV, and so can certain antibiotics. Discuss it with your ObG doctor. Good luck.
