UGH! I'm so sick and tired of people telling us that Flagyl will get rid of BV. Most likley the ones telling us this do not have problems with BV. We already know what BV is and what causes it and the symptoms of it (fishy smell), and it is not an STD. I have only been with 1 man my whole life and I haven't had sex in going on 5 years, so I KNOW sex isn't the cause of my BV... For some it may be but not all. Please do not tell us anymore to take antibiotics... We have already done that and thats why we go to this forum.. To find answers and alternative treatments.
