A member asked:
Is there something that can help from getting bv? is there washes?i need help because i cant keep taking antibiotics.they work while youre on them then it comes right back.i already have gastritis and ulcer so i cant take antibiotics much. help?

Unfortunately there are no clear answers. Recurrent BV is very common and prevention can be difficult. Avoiding sex for a few weeks often helps; or if complete abstinence isn't practical, consistent condom use. Vaginal boric acid often is helpful; it needs a prescription and a pharmacist capable of formulating the capsules. Find a gyn who subspecializes in infectious diseases. Good luck.
