  1. It’s sad how easy it is to get bv or a yeast infection as a girl. After I passed the age of 19 it’s like my private area became so sensitive to everything. I had to change from summers eve (which I was using for yrs) to unscented vagisil, drink cranberry juice & water, no uncomfy panties, & take probiotics before my period. I change one thing & boom bv & yeast infection 😢

  2. So I’m having bv and a yeast infection at the same time and my period is coming in 2 days and I’m like 13 so I have to wait 7 days for the yeast to go away and 8 days for my period to be gone 😭 hopefully that blood washes all that yeast out and I will be glad when it finishes it cus I antibiotics for the bv it helps ( it just comes back over a month)

  3. I was eating avocado a spoon of Greek Plain yogurt and sauerkraut 3X a week and with in two weeks I started having burning itchy discomfort in my Vag. My OBGyN said I had too much good bacteria (lactobacillus) so I had to cut back ..

  4. I have thick white discharge like cottage cheese and vulva is swelled up and there is a lot pain in vaginal and bladder area. And urine is frequent and there is a continuous urge to urinate

  5. I’m 12 and I’m very scared bc the videos says that yellow Oder discharge is bad and I have bv. But my mom said it is normal because she is a nurse so can u guys give me tips?!😭😭

  6. Ladies! I cured my BV from home. You can treat it with Garlic. Slice a clove into pieces small enough to swallow, DONT CHEW, you'll thank me later. Do it for 7 days and i promise it will be gone!
