I cant get rid of the Bacteria Vaginosis that I have been diagnosed with. It is really ruining my confidence?

and relationship. I was given some antibiotics that cleared it for about a week when I went back to my clinic they told me theres nothing they can do for me its something that comes and goes. I can't take having this I never feel clean. Please can anyone give me any advise as to how I can get rid of this.

wow, i never had doctor tell me they couldnt do anything for me about that problem. they should be able to give you some cream/gel designed specifically for that. seek a second opinion
Reply:I don't know why the clinic you went to said that there is nothing that they can do for it. It is a bacterial infection that needs to be treated. Not unless you have a fungal infection, that is different.





Your partner could be reinfecting you.





I would get a second opinion.
Reply:Perhaps youve been misdiagnoised. THat happens. See a different doctor and perhaps go to the local health Dept VD clinic. They see lots of vaginal diseases . Remember Gonorrhea is easily misdiagnosed and often gives false positives or false negatives. You can retest. Try a different medication, perhaps the one you have doesnt respond to your body. mostly get a different doctor or clinic cause anyone who tells you that is an *** hole!
Reply:The clinics are not that good....some strains of the bacteria are resistent to certain antibiotics..you may just need another course, of a different type, to clear it up...don't believe all the clinic says..it can stay with you but it is possible to stop the infection flaring up again
Reply:are u sure its only bacteria vaginosis and not Trichomoniasis. my sister had the same thing happen to her they told her at the ER it was just bacteria vaginosis and when she went for her pap it came back as Trich? something to think about.....
Reply:i can offer simple suggestions ....like...stop wearing thong underwear...it transfers bacteria from the anus to the vagina and causes vaginosis, also wearing tight pants will cause the bacteria transfer as well...or not wearing underwear at all will cause vaginosis....i hope this helps...
Reply:It is caused by drugs in your system as a child for any illness, colds, flu, measles, mumps, runny nose, anything. drugs interupt the inner good bacteria of your intestinal linning as well as your vagina. it is a good idea to start a candida diet and regimen as soon as possible. Go to your local health food store and ask them to give you one, or order one for you. There is also a book about it and a cook book in your local bookstore. Candida albacans. it is a rampant condition that most people have and do not know it. Antibiotics is the cause. It is a vicious cycle that you need to stop NOW!!! Go to it.
Reply:If you take 1 tbs baking soda with water and douche which will neutralize the bad bacteria and then take 5 capsules of acidophilis (you can get acidophilis at any health food store or walmarts...schiff is a good brand...if you cant find it you can go to vitaglo.com and open them and put them in with the water and douche this will coat the walls again and stop the smell and help...you will feel much better...also start taking acidophlis every day...doctors know that when you take antibiotics it kills the good bacteria in the vagina that coats the walls, the acidophlis replaces it...it works. but if your not sick...they dont get paid...so eat lots of yogurt and take the capsules daily and you should have no more trouble...hope it helps
Reply:If you are with a regular partner...was he treated too? If he wasn't then chances are high that he has it and is reinfecting you. Both of you need to be treated at the same time and to abstain from sex until the course of treatment is complete.


It shouldn't be something you have to put up with, it CAN be cured with antibiotics.
Reply:get your Doc to write you a prescription for clindesse. I think that is how you spell it. That Works!
Reply:your partner needs to be treated too or you will keep being affected.
Reply:It can be an annoying and difficult problem. The issue is often the difficulty or re-establishing and maintaining the normal,protective, vaginal flora, lactobacilli.





Try this harmless technique. At the onset of each period, buy a small tub of LIVE natural yogurt. Put it ion the fridge and make sure everyone knows it is yours! Each day immerse a tampon in the yogurt and then insert it in the normal way. Cover the remaining yogurt with cling film each time. Discard the pot at the end of each period.





The reason this may help is that LIVE natural yogurt contains that same organism, lactobaccilli. Post to let me know if this works after a couple of months.
Reply:I know how you feel, i had it when i was younger but nothing was done about it and i had to cope with it for years..it then went on to cause the disease i now have; pelvic inflammatory disease and its chronic because it was left so long and keeps coming back even after treatment. you need to go back and demand more treatment until its properly cleared, otherwise you might end up with PID too and its horrible. Keep going back and refuse to leave until they help you. i hope they do something and it clears up soon good luck
Reply:hiya i am in the same boat as you and i no how horrible it is i have been back to me docs for now 8 month ad everything i have tried has never got rid of it and they say they ant treat my bf because it is not passed on that way !!!


i have tried so many different antibiotics they have prescribed me and nothing is getting rid of it !!!


i have tried acidophillus tablets which i take everyday and even them arnt getting it away please email so we can go through what i have taken and see it it can help if you take it


email me on venza69@yahoo.co.uk


would be nice to chat about it as its doing my head in with what i can try next !!!!!!!!! p.s i am 20 and have had it for now 8 months !!!


and i never feel clean anymore and it makes me so worried when having sex with my boyfriend too !!!
Reply:i had this when i was pregnant, just keep taking the antibiotics and try and get some for your bf too, my midwife told me that you can have and treat it but when you sleep with your partner you could pass it to them and then even though you are taking the antibiotics your partner is passing it straight back onto to you, i had exactly same experience, take you anti biotics and wear loose not tight bottoms better not wearing thongs too, get your bf treated also and then hopefully it should get sorted. x
