Bacterial Vaginosis, Any Help Appreciated! Posted: 09-25-07 22:50pm


Hello! I was diagnosed with this today. My doctor called me and put me on some antibiotics. I looked up Bacterial Vaginosis online, and noticed that is said: "BV can increase a woman's susceptibility to other STDs, such as chlamydia and gonorrhea." Now does this mean, while I have BV, OR for the rest of my life? (I don't sleep around, and I always use condoms--no exceptions so I'm not too worried, but I'd rather be prepared)

If you always wear condoms then how would you get other stds? You wouldn't! The antibiotics will clear up all the BV.
