Bacterial vaginitis - I have suffered of yeast infection for the last two years, each two months it?

Hi. I'm not sure if you mean each time your infection lasted two months or if you were getting them every two months, and I'm also not sure which infection you're talking about because you have the names of both bacterial vaginitis and yeast infection in your question, but here's what I can tell you based on my experience. I was getting infections for 9 months at the rate of one per month or more and my doctor, without doing any tests, was diagnosing yeast infection and giving me fluconazole and then monistat. Finally I swithced to a new OBGYN and she took a culture and said I was actually negative for a yeast infection and had bacterial vaginosis. She said if someone gets these kinds of infections more than 3 times per year (And I got 3 in four months with my second doctor) then they need to be treated as a recurrent patient not just for each episode.

Now I'm going on a 4-month preventative medicine cycle where I take metronidazole gels and change my diet and take this thing called ginseng violet for four months (not every single night, of course). Anyway, my suggestion to you is if you have been dealing with this for two years and you're not getting results from your doctor, try switching doctors, or maybe bring this few-month-long treatment thing up with your doctor. Hope this helps.

Hi I am 25 years old and have been suffering from reoccurring bv as well. I have had the same problems as you. I go to the dr. And of course get prescribed antibiotics but then end up with a yeast infection and the bv ends up eventually coming back. I have figured out the best remedy for me that has changed my life and no more dr. Visits!!! Buy a douche bottle and fill it with 1/2 3% hydrogen peroxide and the other half with water then add 3 drops of tree oil to mixture and shake well. Use this to douche with. I know douching isn't good for you but if u follow these steps it's perfectly fine for the cure of bv but never douche on a regular basis!!! After douching with the hydrogen peroxide mix pat your vagina dry. Take a tampon and dip it into organic plain yogurt with lots of live cultures in it. This will put back in the good bacteria. Take fem dophulis or any acidopholus probiotic everyday for ever lol just to maintain a good vaginal ph even after the bv is cured.
