Some Bacteria can be resistant to amoxy/pen. the only way to know for sure is to have the bacteria cultured to see what it is sensitive to. If it is resistant to amoxy/pen taking it can make the infection worse and the bacteria more resistant. Antibiotics should only be taken under the direction of a medical doctor.
Is there any known cure for bacterial vaginosis because I can't stand it anymore?
my suggestion wouldn't be to ask for opinions on here especially about medication, my suggest would be to seek a health care provider and get your bv taken are of.
References :
Metronidazole or Clindamycin are the recommended treatments for bacterial vaginosis.
If you suspect you have bacterial vaginosis, you MUST be evaluated, diagnosed, and treated, by a physician.
Do not attempt to diagnose or treat yourself; do not take leftover antibiotics or someone else's antibiotics to treat any condition. There may not be enough doses to kill the infection; the dosage may not be sufficient (antibiotic dosages vary widely depending on patient and infection); the antibiotic may not work on your particular infection.
Please read about BV at

Then see a physician. Penicillin is not used to treat BV.

I tried that. It doesn’t work. you really need the metronidazole. it clears it right up. The pen actually made it worse
