Chronic BV, anyone else?

ugh, I'm like 5 years into this now. constant discharge, constant odor, constantly unsexy!  I don't know what else to do, I've had everything tested, I've tried every antibiotic, probiotics, yogurt, HP, tea tree oil, rephresh, cotton underwear, no underwear.. nothing helps at all, it comes back every month like clockwork.  I've pretty much given up on a cure and now just trying to control the symptoms so I can try to have a normal sex life, which is really tough...  Anyone else out there know what I'm going through?

I've had the same situation. Nothing works to prevent it from recurring. It's so frustrating.

I assume you have taken the prescribed antibiotics and took the full run?  Did your partner at the time also take the same antibiotics and take them for the same length of time in unison with you taking them?
