Keep getting bacterial vaginosis after sex! What can I do? |
OK here's some background. I have been having sex with only one partner for the past 2 years - yes unprotected. I used to occasionally get bacterial infections (usually after going awhile without sex and then having it again) but now, it's pretty much constant. I take flagyl and it clears up the infection right away, then I have sex again and it's back immediately. It never used to happen this often with him but now it's like I can't shake it. It's SO FRUSTRATING. I have been tested several times for STD's, all negative. I feel like I need a lifetime supply of Flagyl! Is it possible I'm allergic to my partner's sperm? What can I do about this BESIDES using condoms? I'm so tired of these infections they are making me nuts. Please help. That is what I thought. He must be passing it back to me. I don't think it has anything to do with his hygiene - he's a clean guy. I probably originally got it and passed it to him and now we're going back and forth. So I should send him to a dr I guess. Yeah, that'll be easy. lol Sounds like he's passing it back to you. As a man, he can carry it and not experience symptoms. And when you are treated for it, he is not. You need to have a serious conversation with him about his hygiene. http://womenshealth.about.com/cs/vaginos... Your partner needs to get treated. He is giving the infection back to you. The doctor can prescribe medication for his penis. I think it's a cream. Ask your boyfriend to rinse his penis with a little diluted apple cider vinegar during his shower. Kills bacteria. Also during a soaking bath he can add a few tablespoons of hydrogen peroxide to the bath water. umm... don't have sex the man is probly caring a desies change men. he's giving it to you if he hasn't been treated. and if he has then he's stepping out. |
