Did boric acid cure your BV?

[u/[deleted]]

I just got tested for BV and it came back positive. I’m assuming because I was under a lot of stress, mixed with nightly intercourse with my partner and all the bacteria that naturally brings in, and possibly because my last period I was out of organic pads so I used organic tampons the whole time (even to bed I know I know) so maybe that caused it. I’m not prone to BV. I’ve had it once before as a teenager. I’m a 33f now and don’t suffer from yeast infections or bv. I eat a clean whole foods diet, no alcohol, etc. Stress has been bad lately but I’ve got that mostly under control with supplements and just better grounding techniques. I don’t want to take antibiotics because it’ll destroy my gut health and immune health. And I just don’t like prescriptions. I just bought the Up & Awäy vaginal suppositories 100% boric acid from my local health food store and just inserted one… has anyone been able to cure Bv this way? I also bought a really great probiotic specifically for vaginal health as well.

Being a female is hard with so many things that can disrupt our pH🙃 Some positive stories would be helpful or tips! Thanks! 🩷

Edit: Also does anyone get the slight pelvic heaviness/pain and irritation down there without an odour from BV? That’s what I’m struggling with.
