BV symptoms to look out for 👀

Bacterial Vaginosis is super common & can be asymptomatic! BV is an overgrowth of bad bacteria in the vagina. If you do have symptoms, look out for these:

1. Fishy odor — this is a very distinct odor & can get worse with sex or during your period! The odor may not be fishy but just strong or unusual for you!

2. Burning & itching are common with BV! Your vulva may burn and itch plus sex can be painful. Burning with urination is common too.

3. Abnormal discharge is normal but look out for discharge that is unusual for you or that is grey or yellow/greenish.

If you notice changes with your body or symptoms that are out or your norm, go see a gynecologist! Getting tested is the best way to know for sure if you’re dealing with BV or another vaginal infection.

Hope this helps!!

... Read moreBacterial Vaginosis is one of the most prevalent vaginal infections among women, yet many remain unaware of its symptoms. Symptoms may often include a distinctive fishy odor, especially after sexual intercourse or during menstruation. It is important to recognize that while some discharge is normal, any shifts in color or consistency, particularly a gray or yellow-greenish tint, should be monitored. Women may experience discomfort in the form of burning or itching around the vulva and during urination, which can be indicative of BV. This overgrowth of harmful bacteria can manifest silently, so awareness of your body's normal state is crucial for early detection. If any symptoms appear, it's advisable to seek medical advice promptly, as diagnosing BV typically requires a gynecological examination. Maintaining general vaginal health through good hygiene practices and awareness of bodily changes plays an essential role in prevention and treatment. Knowledge and proactive healthcare can significantly influence your experience with vaginal health issues.
