      <description>I believe you can get rid of it via naturopath. I believe it was a combination of thuja and vitamin A suppositories. For 1 month alternating those each week. Abstinence of sex was required as well. How bad are your symptoms, if you have any? Just odor?</description>

      <description>I'm neither a BV sufferer nor smoker but its common knowledge that there are many social connections to BV as&#xD;
well as dietary.&#xD;
&#xD;
Have you avoided taking antibiotics?  Have you abstained from sex for any significant period of time?&#xD;
Are you otherwise immuno-compromised?  Do you douche? When you have sex do you have your&#xD;
partner use a condom and/or dental dam? (don't want to assume your sexual orientation)&#xD;
&#xD;
Have you tried to adjust your diet by eliminating "white foods" and increasing fresh fruits and veggies? &#xD;
Do you take probiotic supplements? Apple Cider Vinegar?&#xD;
&#xD;
Are you a stressful person?&#xD;
&#xD;
Do you drink alcohol more than 5x per week?&#xD;
&#xD;
Why don't you quit smoking?</description>

      <description>I am wondering, I have chronic BV and I smoke.  I've been told that there is a higher likely hood of BV in smokers.....&#xD;
&#xD;
How many of you who have chronic BV are smokers?</description>
