Recurrent BV: Bacterial vaginosis often recurs after treatment. Contact the doctor treating you about possible additional treatment. You also should plan on avoiding sex for a while, or using condoms for the next several weeks. Although experts debate whether BV is an STD, it certainly is sometimes triggered by sex.
