At Home Remedies For Bacterial Vaginosis

There are a number of at home remedies for bacterial vaginosis which can be put to use quickly and safely

. These can be particularly effective for both isolated outbreaks and mild recurrent attacks. It is important to understand that BV is not something you can "catch" but is caused by an imbalance of naturally occurring bacteria within the vagina. When the pH level of the normally healthy vagina is disrupted and becomes alkaline in nature, this can promote the growth of harmful bacteria, and it is this which causes the symptoms.

The symptoms of BV include a foul, fishy smelling discharge often coupled with some itching or irritation of the sensitive vaginal tissues, (although not all women will experience the irritation). The discharge is usually quite watery and will be gray or white in color.

There are 4 at home remedies for bacterial vaginosis which I feel are worthy of trying:-

* Live yogurt contains healthy strains of bacteria similar to those in a healthy vagina. If you can get some of this into the vagina (either via a tampon or a tampon applicator) then this can help to replenish your depleted supplies and start to multiply in the damp, warm conditions

* Tea tree oil. This can be used in pessary form or neat undiluted oil can be added to your bathwater (around 12 drops to a shallow bath). This can help to kill the harmful bacteria

* Cider vinegar is naturally mildly acidic and can help restore the healthy pH level of the vagina. Adding a couple of cups to a shallow bath can be all that is needed to ease the itching and irritation

* Garlic capsules have great antibacterial and antifungal properties and taking these as part of a healthy diet can help in the fight against BV

It is best to try a number of at home remedies for bacterial vaginosis before resorting to antibiotics as you might find that some are better suited to your needs than others.

Although not harmful in the early stages, untreated BV can lead to pelvic inflammatory disease and even infertility. If you are prone to this condition and would like to try other natural treatments, there are a couple of fast acting solutions which I recommend which will help you be rid of BV within hours. These are completely guaranteed to work and have already provided a permanent cure to thousands of women worldwide.
