Be sure your partner is treated at the same time and takes the same run of flagyl as you do and actually takes his pills.  You don't want to get well and then have him pass BV right back to you.

Hi Mrs Carter, just please remember, that to keep taken antibiotics is not good for you, but keep eating natural yogurt and taken your acidphilus, you can get them from a chemist, thet replace the good bugs in your stomach that antis kill.
Good Luck

Hi there.  Were you given flagyl?  Sometimes they treat partners at the same time.  BV can be tough to totally eradicate.  Do you exercise a lot?  Make sure underwear is cotton.  Some women will fight BV for a period of time and then it will finally be gone.  So, go back to your doctor and follow up that it is still there.  Good luck.
