    I never had BV in my 41 years on earth but after my partner had sex age 42 I had a wellness annual check & it came back postive for BV. my papsmear always came back negative. But I had NO symptoms at ALL. Which I believe with the manority that men sleep around with other woman saying they arent but the vagina never lies when your PH balance is off.

    I noticed I only caught the infection once a guy I was once dating for 3 years cheated on me. All of a sudden my PH changed..🤔 I definitely think men causes it by sleeping with other women.

    My wife has bv and she's pregnant on her first trimester. What type of antibiotics if any are safe.? I'm worried because we went to a walk in clinic and they prescribed her metronidazole..my concern is that these are not safe antibiotics? I watched a few reviews about it on UA-cam and the doctors on the videos all said that it was not safe for pregnant women.

      There is no research to support this. Yeast likes moisture (I have quite a few videos on yeast and more coming). While his semen may change because of his alcohol intake, any semen in the vagina for a period of time may cause a yeast overgrowth in you. Try not to let semen or sweat hang in the vagina too long.

    I know somebody’s gonna come for me..but it’s crazy how women sleep around just as much as men yet these comments don’t acknowledge it! Dr. P gave multiple statements saying it’s not directly our fault, there’s no blame to push on anybody. When you have unprotected sex, you sleep with everyone that person has been with and vice versa. It’s the truth! If you’re having sex then use a condom. Live a clean life!

    Thank you doc for the amazing explanation. I’m experiencing BV and yeast infection right now, and I have never had BV before I was sexually active. And this is the second time i have BV, the last time I had BV was last year. But this time, for couple of time I noticed that there are bloods mixed with my vaginal discharge, could you please tell me what caused this? Fyi, I’m in the middle of BV and yeast infection right now. Thank you doc

      Hi, sometimes infections such as BV and yeast can cause irritation in the vagina that cause bleeding. Sometimes sexual activity or placing things in the vagina can cause it as well. Lastly, you can also have a problem higher up in the pelvis with the cervix or uterus that can cause bleeding.

      There is no test for him as he doesn't have an infection. You had an overgrowth of your bacteria in the vagina. His semen may have sparked the overgrowth. Using a condom may be a good idea.

      Yes, now that your partner has had BV it's very likely you are just passing it back and forth. Men can be given antibiotics and a cream for his tip as well. Having both partners treated and re-tested after 3 months, in conjunction with a faithful relationship finally knocked it out for us. But we went years not knowing that it could and was being passed back & forth because they say men don't carry the bacteria or the sperm is the only issue.

      Well, candidiasis can happen in the mouth as well, so I would gamble it could be possible to contract vaginal candidiasis through that contact. However, both candidiasis and BV can happen naturally from a mere PH imbalance, which is why they're typically classified as non-STIs.
      I'm currently on Fluomuzin for BV and I haven't had sex in a while. I got it because I'd been wearing some leggings that I think were too tight and they probably fucked up my PH balance. My doc also said it can happen from dietary changes, type of underwear, etc. And when it happens as a result of sex, it typically happens because the PH of the person who you had sex with interfered with yours. Semen can apparently be a huge disruptor.
