hi,
thank you for your query.
bacterial vaginosis should be treated with bi-pronged approach of treating as well as trying to prevent any further recurrance.
The usual medical regimen for treatment is the antibiotic Metronidazole (500 mg twice a day, once every 12 hours) for 7 days.
vaginal creams should also be used.
few tips to treat and prevent it are-
1.use antibiotics for bacterial infections.
2.Keep the vagina clean by washing regularly with a gentle, mild soap and warm water.
3.Never use scented soaps and feminine products or douche.
4.Also avoid feminine sprays and bubble baths.
5.After going to the bathroom, always wipe from front to back to prevent bacteria from getting into the vagina and causing an infection.
6.Wear 100% cotton underpants, and avoid overly tight clothing.
