Searching for a bacterial vaginosis cure? There are tons of different options that women can pursue when searching for ways to cure their bacterial problems. You can go the natural route and use things such as garlic, yogurt, and tea tree oil. Or, you can opt for a more traditional antibiotic treatment.

The problem with BV is the simple fact that the infection is really hard to get rid of permanently. Sure, it’s easy to get the symptoms to go away for a few weeks, even a few months but they tend to reappear a lot.

Women who have recurring bacterial bacteriosis typically try to cure their ailment using antibiotics and medications from their doctors. This is fine and dandy but it doesn’t get to the root of bacterial vaginosis and these women typically get re-infected.

Why antibiotics are not effective:

When you take antibiotics for bacterial vaginosis, you tend to kill off ALL the bacteria in your vagina. Killing all the bacteria may sound all right but it’s actually a bad thing. Your vagina has a delicate balance of both good and bad bacteria in it. The good bacteria usually keep the bad in check.

When you do a cycle of antibiotics you leave yourself open to getting re-infected because you have killed all the good bacteria. In doing so you leave yourself super vulnerable to getting infected again!

So what can you do?

First of all, stop worrying! I know bacterial vaginosis can be super uncomfortable, smelly, and embarrassing but, chances are, that it will not hurt you. Typically only pregnant mothers really have to worry about bacterial vaginosis complications.

I recommend a natural bacterial vaginosis cure. Have you ever heard of Echinacea or Golden Seal? These two herbs are typically used to help you fight of colds or the flu. These two herbs are immune boosters that help your white blood cells fight of viruses and infections.

These antiviral/antibiotic properties are also super helpful when you have an infection, like BV. These two herbs should be taken to treat current symptoms as well as preventing a recurrent infection.

I prefer to take Echinacea and Goldenseal as supplements but many women have been known to apply them to the infected area. That’s really your choice… do whatever is the most comfortable and effective for you. But when I do take them orally I use a liquid form, a liquid form is absorbed by your body faster.

Another bacterial vaginosis cure, Vitamin C. Vitamin C is super important in maintaining healthy skin and manufacturing collagen in your body. Collagen is the backbone of your skin, ligaments, and your tendons. So whys this important to you?

Collagen helps your skin maintain optimal health. Healthy skin is a lot more resistant to infections than weak skin. Taking in enough vitamin C helps your skin stay healthy and it revs up your immune system. This is an effective double whammy versus bacterial vaginosis. Taking Vitamin C is a very effective bacterial vaginosis cure that’s inexpensive and all natural. It helps your body defeat infection and to keep it at bay forever!
