My vagina has been smelling bad now for a while, i havent visisted my doctor due to the fact that i have no health insurance and well its pretty expensive. Ive had BV before but i would like to know in case i have this again, is it bad if i havent gotten any treatment for it?? Im really worried please help. Also could my husband be a blame for this? I noticed his penus smelled really bad and after having sex with him ive been having this problem.
It sounds like your husband and yourself are sharing BV or something similar. BV is often confused with yeast infection, and I believe that BV can lead to complications – the only one I know of is a possibility of pelvic inflammatory disease. Apparently it should clear up on its own in 2-3 days, and complications are rare.
You can do a few things, in case it is a case of yeast infection rather than BV.
- Eat lots of yogurt with active bacterial culture (it's GOOD bacteria, and will fight yeast infection)
- Keep clean with regular EXTERNAL washing with water and a non-irritating soap. Try a vaginal wash. Your husband should do this as well, vaginal wash can also be used on male genitals. (DO NOT douche)
- Sleep in cotton underwear and pj's – avoid wearing underwear at all, if you can.
You and your husband should avoid sex for a few days, until it is cleared up. You could possibly keep passing the infection back and forth between yourselves. If things don't go back to normal in a few days, you will just have to bite the bullet, and go to the doctor's.
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
The bacteria will work its way up into your liver and once there, the liver will begin to ‘bleed.’ The best thing for you to do is take supplement from an organic market which specifically treats this otherwise the problem will get very serious.

Smell? more than likely its something inside. A ring or condom left inside perhaps.

As expensive as seeing the doctor, it is important for you to go. This “bacterial vaginosis” could be several things. It could be normal bacterial flora getting out of control, or it could be other bacterial infections caused by STD’s. Unless you see a doctor, you will not have a proper identification of the bacteria and therefore will not get the proper treatment. Some of these infections can cause scarring of the fallopian tubes which increases risk of tubal pregnancies or can also cause infertility. Your husband could be blamed if you end up with some sort of STD. Until then, get checked out and see.
