I read somewhere that vit c for people with active BV infection will aggravate it..maybe something to look into...from own experience-I had mild urinary infection so I thought I should take high dose of vit c..omg...never again..I had to take uti antibiotic to get rid of it..was like a fuel for a fire.Replied By Specialk (Philadelphia) on 03/07/2017
I read - Treatment Left untreated BV goes away on it's own 30% of the time. There are prescription products which are antibiotic based (oral pills or vaginal creams) which restore bacterial balance. Or you can use BUFFERED or Ester vitamin C 500-1000mg (regular Vit. C will BURN) inserted vaginally one at night for 1-5 nights (experiment, sometimes if it is mild one night will treat.) You will get a watery discharge each day following treatment, so wear a pad.
