Hello sir and welcome.

Precum is unlikely to cause BV in women (although not impossible), but the more probable cause is personal hygiene. I would urge you and your partner to clean your genitalia and oral cavities (if at all oral sex is involved), just prior to your sexual contact to prevent BV.

It is also important for your partner to abstain from sexual intercourse until 2 weeks after the last dose of antibiotics prescribed for the treatment of BV, or else a recurrence is likely.

Hope this helps.

Best wishes.
