Having Bacterial Vaginosis means you suffer from unbearable itching and an uncomfortable burning sensation that never goes away. Prescription medication given by the doctor might not always work, and can leave you feeling quite fed up and alarmed. There’s nothing as bad as a never ending infection of any kind.

There are many homeopathic treatments available for you to try out when you give up on the prescription medication. One important thing to remember is that you should never combine home remedies and prescription medication as there sometimes could be adverse reactions.

The bacterial vaginosis treatment done at home requires that you use unsweetened yogurt to paint the walls of your vagina. This can be messy, and you should wear a sanitary pad to avoid spilling and dripping. The second method isn’t as messy as the first but also utilizes the unsweetened yogurt. You should coat a tampon with the yogurt, and then insert it into your vagina. You should replace it every few hours.

Another home remedy is garlic. The most popular method is using the garlic as a suppository inserted in the vagina. This is done by wrapping a peeled garlic clove in gauze and tying the end with unwaxed dental floss. Insert it into the vagina as you would a tampon, and leave the floss hanging out so you can remove it when you need to. This course of treatment runs for a few nights.

For those who can’t stand the smell of garlic or the messiness of yogurt, there are garlic pills and yogurt pills - lactobacillus acidophilus tablets. Whatever method you choose, remember your aim is the find the best bacterial vaginosis treatment. And when you find it, share it.
