I NEVER post things on websites like this! I just really hope it can help someone else like me! I literally use to cry over this a feel discusting hours after a shower!

-7 day 1/2 peroxide 1/2 water douche each morning
-acidophilus morning and night while douching and every day for 3 weeks thereafter
-folic acid once a day while douching and daily for 3 weeks after
The key for me was PATIENCE. I was sick of taking/inserting antibiotics for a week every month. I decided to let my body "fix" itself (which it is designed to do) and it did. Yes you'll have to put up with the smell for a while, and so will your partner. It proved to be worth it for me.

Fill the douching kit with half luke warm water and half hydrogen peroxide. After taking a shower use the douche in the morning, then again before going to bed.
Take Folic acid 800 mg once a day, I chose to do mine in the morning
Take acidophilus twice a day, once in the morning, and once in the evening. Try to keep the times consistent, Ex: 9am every day and 9pm everyday
To my surprise and GREAT delight, this actually took care of my problem!! I felt a difference after the first day of doing my regimen and really could not believe it. I would recommend staying away from any sexual activity for the time period that you are doing this. I gave myself about 2 weeks before having sex again. Surprisingly it was pain free and enjoyable just like before I had the infection. If you are worried about being intimate simply use the hydrogen peroxide douche after sex and that should make you feel fresh again. I would recommend this to anyone struggling with this problem!

1. I used a baby boogie puller ( I don't have children so for lack of a better name for it lol) as the douche... You know the one with the narrow insertion and the bulb at the end. I boil that everytime to sterilize. I filled the bulb with half HP and half water. Inserted nightly and layed down in the bathtub to let it work its magic for about 5 minutes. I did this for 7 nights in a row, although the symptoms were gone after day 2.
2. Take a multi vitamin that has 400mg of folic acid in the morning, as well as a repfresh pill (They are kinda pricey :( and can be found at your pharmacy. Said to have healthy probiotics that are found in a healthy vagina.
3. Take a 400mg pill of folic acid and acidiophilus capsules in the evening.
CURED! Feel normal for the first time in a year. Even after taking flagyl I still did not feel back to myself and the symptoms would reoccur after intercourse or my period. I did feel a little irritated down there after intercourse, so I did the hydro douche the day after and symptoms subsided. Have faith it works... Oh and as far as inserting acidiophilus... I tried that. Mixed it with water and inserted. Irritated me, so I don't recommend that! Good luck to anyone who reads this. :)

It was horrible!!! When it first began I experienced the discharge, itching, and slight odor during and after intercourse. I don't have great insurance coverage so I decided to try and let it run its course. Well, that never happened. The itching and burning went away on its own. But the discharge and smell were putrid. The smell became so bad, I started smelling it through my clothes and I know other people around me could too. Sex became something I dreaded... I could smell it so I knew he could. It was so embarressing.. I stumbled accross this site and all I can say is Thank God!!
I first tried ACIDOPHILUS pills. I took two by mouth and inserted one vaginally. The next morning the smell became even worse!! It wasn't a fishy smell, it was an undescrible disgusting smell. I had to go to work that morning.. Lets just say I couldn't wait for 5:30 to get out of my cubicle and go home to wash. On my way home that day I decided to stop by walgreens and pick up VH essentials BV Treatment Homeopathic Time-Release Vaginal Inserts.. They were $24.95. Pricey yes, but I was willing to try anything. I also picked up vitamen D supplements (i read some where on here that they have helped for some) I got the 1000 ui dosage. I first used Peroxide and water douche to clean out the nasty smell and took by mouth 3 of the vitamen D capsules. After the peroxide and water douch, the smell was remarkably improved. I inserted the vh essentials bv treatment as directed on package (only using half first) no more than three hours later the smell was completely gone!!!!!!!
It has been four days and Im still continuing to use the time release capsules as directed on box, taking 3 of the 1000 ui vitamen D, 2 ACIDOPHILUS (by mouth!! ) and douching with the h20 and peroxide, everyday. No more smell and no more discharge!!!! I cannot tell you how greatful I am for the posts on this site. I can finally be me again!!! my boyfried has even done his own research and decided that his seman may causing a reaction as well and we are using other methods regarding that.
That is what worked for me, and I hope it will do the same for someone else. What do you have to loose... But the SMELL. Good luck : )
