subject: Causes of Recurring Bacterial Vaginosis - How to Stop Your BV from Recurring [print this page] Although bacterial vaginosis is seen as a fairly common infection affecting most women at least once in their lives, there is a fairly large possibility that it can recur even after treatments. Experts are still unclear on how exactly this happens, but here are some possible causes on why recurring bacterial vaginosis occurs:
Once the natural pH and moisture levels of the vagina become unbalanced, chances are the microflora that resides there undergoes changes as well. In particular, "bad" bacteria such as Gardnerella vaginitis may begin to thrive more in the vagina and soon outnumber the "good" bacteria found there. This will eventually lead to the unpleasant smelling vaginal discharge that bacterial vaginosis is known for.
Treatments may eliminate Gardnerella, but a few may still survive and begin to grow in number again once the conditions are right, thus leading to the recurrence of BV. It is also likely that the "good" bacteria are unable to repopulate the vagina even after the "bad" bacteria have been eliminated.
A recurrence of bacterial vaginosis may sometimes mean that you have gotten a new infection. There is no way to be sure of this though, but it is a possibility that you have been completely treated from a previous infection but have been exposed once again.
These are two of the possible causes of recurring bacterial vaginosis accepted by experts. By changing your previous treatment plan as instructed by your doctor and committing yourself to a hygienic lifestyle and protected sexual relations, you can get rid of the infection.
