I was with my ex for years and kept getting bacterial vaginosis. My Doctor told me that it is not a sexual transmitted disease but I havent had it again since I stopped having sex with him. Is it possible that he was the reason I kept getting it ?
bacterial vaginosis is caused by an unbalance of the normal bacteria that exist in your vagina – not enough good to counter-act the not so good. MANY things can cause this – hot weather, too many soaps/ care products with perfumes, tight clothing, dietary changes and douching to name a few. Sexual activity of any kind certainly changes the chemical balance in your vagina – not just that with your ex. It wasn't specifically that he was giving you anything, just that the activity could have possibly contributed to the inbalance. Believe it or not, more women than you think get it more often than you think.

Did either of you bathe?
