Do NOT douche. Douching can increase or cause bacterial vaginosis. A home remedy is:
To treat BV with L. acidophilus, you can do one or more of the following:
Eat at least 8 oz(226.8 g) of yogurt with live L. acidophilus cultures as part of your long-term daily diet. In one small study, women who ate L. acidophilus yogurt for 2 months showed a drop in rates of BV.5
Providing that you are not pregnant, you can directly treat the vaginal area with lactobacilli by inserting lactobacilli in gelatin capsules (which dissolve), tablet form, or yogurt form (with a vaginal medication applicator) into your vagina. Do this for 7 days. In one small study of yogurt application for 7 days, 88% of women were BV-free when tested 2 months after treatment.5
Researchers have recently found that two different types of lactobacillus—L. crispatus and L. jensenii—are most commonly found in a healthy vaginal environment. Research is currently focusing on using these types of lactobacilli in capsules.5
Recurrent ‘Bacterial Vaginosis’ can be very traumatic to live with. Sometimes after taking all the creams, potions and antibiotics the problem still comes back time after time. After suffering with recurrent bacterial vaginosis (BV) for nearly 3 years I eventually found a totally natural cure. The claim was to be clear of bacterial vaginosis in 3 days. Imagine my delight when I found the claims to be totally true. If you have bacterial vaginosis for the first time or have had recurrent bacterial vaginosis for some time this is something you really should consider looking at Bacterial Vaginosis Help – The 3 Day Cure

Actually prevention is the best cure – Increase your plain (no sugar no artificial anything just plain) yogurt intake to 4oz a day (eat with fruit at breakfast or mix with Muslix) and drink at least 6oz of cranberry juice a day. That will keep your body in balance and you will get less infection. Also remember to freshen up after intimacy and clean front to back to reduce bacterial transfer. The best cleansing agents are simple warm water and a clean cloth no soaps as they can cause allergic reaction. Good Luck!

Hi!!
One of the primary focuses of bacterial vaginosis home cure is rebalancing the normal vaginal flora. If this is achieved, there is every likelihood of getting rid of bacterial vaginosis permanently.
Natural cures for bacterial vaginosis prove effective in a majority of cases.
a. Yogurt:Lactobacillus: acidophilus and L. bifidus, present in yogurt, help restore the acidic balance in the vagina. They can either be taken orally or introduced directly into the vagina. Plain yogurt, containing live acidophilus cultures, can be eaten directly. The acidophilus powder or capsules can be taken orally too. Vaginal inserts, in the form of tampons soaked in yogurt, is another effective alternative that improves the vaginal environment.
b. Douching: A boric acid douche is an ideal alternative to acidify the vaginal pH. This bacterial vaginosis treatment prevents unwanted bacteria from multiplying and destroys that’s already present. However, some women are known to be sensitive to this douche. Another effective means of lowering the vaginal pH is by using Summer's Eve medicated douche, which contains potassium iodide. A vinegar douche, made by mixing one tablespoon of vinegar per quart of warm water, is also as effective.
