    From what i read online you are supposed to dilute it.
    One site said 1:10 parts, another said 1:4 parts.
    I think it should still work, it seems like some pretty strong stuff.
    your just feeding your good bacteria, i don't think
    they will stop eating it up or something.

    On another note, i know the lactic acid in molkosan and
    lactose is what makes it effective against the BV.
    I was at the grocery store recently,
    and in the spice section i saw a container of
    plain old lactic acid. I will investigate further,
    but i don't think there were any additives.
    I wonder if that would work super well?
    Although i am hesitant to try.
    molksosan first!!
    round 1 tonight...

      I used the Lady Balance. 12 hours later the tablet fell out almost entirely intact!!

      Think I might stick to the Balance Activ.

        Hi guys,

        I was waiting to post more until I had been using the Molkosan for a while and I want you all to know that it has stopped working for me. The lactose is not working either. I swear I am going to lose my mind soon, I thought for sure one of these would be it.

          This just depressed me to read this : ( That sucks... How long have you been using it for? Maybe if you stop using it for like a week and then get back on it? Im using the Molkosan and that was one of my questions, if we would become immune to it. And then I was wondering if it would cure it after using it forever.... I guess not.... I'm going to lose my mind too... I could scream right now.

            I'm so sorry to have crushed hopes. I'm going to try a few things with the molkosan. I've got about 1/4 of the bottle left so what i'll do today is go and get a new bottle, maybe this one got contaminated somehow. I'll try a few different things and let you guys know how it goes. I also have something new i'm going to try. I won't say what it is yet because I have no idea if it will work or not. I also noticed something last night after looking at my "Biofem Active Gel" last night, it has something called Galactoarabian Polyglucoronic acid in it which to me sounds like it could be something similiar to lactic acid or a derivative. I'm going to give it a second chance because I never used it for the five days it says to in the directions before, I always gave up after days. I'd love to try the balance activ but they don't ship here. I found a few sites that do ship it to North America but the shipping costs are 22 euros which is crazy.

            I'll keep you guys posted

              I don't mind buying and posting off the Balance Activ stuff to the US in theory (I have Paypal). I have no idea how it works in terms of customs/tax etc though.

                Confused

                Hi Sad 21..quick question. I found this site while doing research for BV. I have only been having this problem for about 3 months...it just started out of nowhere, and I still don't know why? I read all day to day starting with the 2006 thread. Your threads were very helpful, I even went out and purchased the FEM Dophilus based on your exp as well as others. When I rtrnd I continued to read on and noticed your blog below and got a little confused. You said you were still trying to get rid of the BV..so does that mean that the Fem..won't work to get rid of this awful smell/discharge or is it just temp..pls...help....meeeeee........(smile) thank you for everything.
                p.s Should I start out taking 1 cap or 2?

                i totally understand hon. i've had it for over a year. still trying to get rid of it. you should read ginger ark's posts. she has alot of great and valuable information.

                don't know too much about peroxide but i know some women mix half and half in a douche bottle and some just do a "wash".....meaning, filling it with peroxide and insert and press. it doesn't wash out the good bacteria, like a douche would, but it's your preference. some like it, some don't .

                hope this helps.

                  This is my first and hopefully last time having BV. I was prescribed Flagyl oral tablets and Metrogel vaginal. My question is:

                  Am I supposed to use them both at the same time? I believe they are the same thing in different forms so wouldn't I just need to use one?

                  Thanks!
                  Hi Kiara...Will you let us know if the Flagyl orally and metrogel vaginally together worked for you? I'm so frustrated with this.

                  AnotherSara...I'm not sure about the customs/tax, etc. either...I wonder why the company doesn't make it available to the US...I know the Lady Balance is available to the US but I have tried it and it didn't work for me. It actually made the smell worse.

                    Can any one tell me what brand of Vitamin C they use that dose not burn them? I tried it and it worked really well for me but, it burned after the third time I used it, so I didn't know if anyone could tell me what is a good brand.

                    Thanks!

                      I put a vitamin C tab in last night but it must have been the wrong kind because this morning it hadnt dissolved at all and i felt really irritated. I;ve also been using tea tree oil suppositories but those also really make me feel uncomfortable and I think it just masks the odor and doesnt eliminate it, but they do help lessen the discharge which is usually white and sticky. Those are the only two symptoms I have but they are with me most of the time. Ive taken antibiotics 3 times since last year and it always comes back after my period or just out of the blue.

                      I just got some flagyl but before I take it I want to have some good probiotics lined up so I can try to get myself back on track. Does this make sense to anyone? please send me a message if you can reccommend a good one.

                      Good luck everyone, reading all your posts made me feel a lot better, like Im not the only one dealing with this sh#t

                      ;-)
