I am from the United States, and I have a problem with reoccurring bacterial vaginosis and my gyn keeps putting me on a medication called Flaygl, it's a really strong medicine and right after I finish taking this medicine I get a yeast infection, then I'm put on terazol. Why does this infection keeps coming back, is it considered a STD and are there any other alternatives besides this medication because I'd like try other things not as strong as Flagyl so that I don't get a yeast infection.

Dear Brumfield,
Please forgive the delay in answering you, i have been extremely busy as a lot of people are seeking my advice.
I understand your situation and can see you are stuck in a vicious cycle with being on these drugs.
These drugs in no way treat the cause of the bacterial overloads. Now, what is interesting is that no matter what the classification is, or diagnosis, the cause is the same;
a weak immune system, toxic diet and bacterial growth as a result. The drugs will never solve this problem because they simply cannot treat the cause. So they are really a waste of time.
Let us begin; First of all I sincerely encourage you to cut out All Artificial sugars from your daily diet; splenda, sucralose, aspartame,acesulfame potassium.
These are Detrimental to our health. Some of these sugars are even found in chewing gum so be careful to read labels.
Also you should try to cut out all toxic oils; margarine, canola, rapeseed and soy bean oils.
Cut out All soy products, except fermented soy. Miso and soy sauce are good. [fermented]
Vaccines of all types MUST be avoided for your body to start healing again. We need to remove as much toxin accumulation from your body as we can.
Soft drinks, sodas, are high is regular sugar and should be completely eliminated. You should also try your
best to sleep early every night, so your circadian rhythms return to normal. Early is 10PM. 11PM then at the latest.
When you eat sugars and grains, they just break down to sugar, the sugar serves as fuel for bad bacteria, and yeast to thrive on. So eventually, the infection in the intestine extends into the vaginal area.
So please remember, cut out breads and sugars as much as possible.
A very effective and safe recommendation for building the immune system and strengthening NK Cell function is in the use of the natural transfer factors.
In the opinion of the majority of recognized immunologists,
the transfer factors are being hailed as the most advanced and safest immune building components known to medicine.
The product you would specifically use though is called "Transfer Factor Rio-Vida". You will find it here: www.trinity.my4life.com
This supplement is a liquid version of the transfer factor. It however contains the addition of immune building Lactoferrin, high levels of anti-oxidants, and a full spectrum of natural vitamins. Therefore is provides broad range nutrition and support. I order the product myself, and am very happy with it.
You would start with just 2 tablespoons per day before your breakfast for the first 7 days, and then move onto 4 tablespoons after that. 2 twice per day. After the bacterial infections have all been cleared, you can come back to 2 tablespoons. This supplement can be taken on an empty stomach before meals.
Additionally you would use "Digestive Enzymes & Probiotics" [same website] to help break down and digest your food properly, and to replenish beneficial flora to your intestine. You would take 1 soft tablet before each meal. 5-10 minutes before a meal with water is fine. Therefore 3 times a day.
The probiotics can also be used inside the vagina itself.
So for the first 5-7 days, you would just insert one soft tablet of the probiotic culture inside the vagina when you go to sleep at night. No more than one is needed, and for no more than 7 days. This will help build beneficial flora internally and externally.
You would however just keep taking the probiotics orally before each meal. Once all is back to health, you can just take two of the probiotics per day. This will maintain your health, and maintain healthy flora, which is essential in preventing bacterial build up.
So once your condition has been healed, then it is a matter of taking smaller doses of these supplements to help maintain health. These supplements are not considered medicines but rather, very high grade and pure foods.
There are many benefits to using the Transfer Factor i mentioned and the Probiotic formula. A few of which help the body remain healthy and prevent sickness, slow down the aging process, and build immune strength which then affects all other organs in the body positively.
I hope this information has been helpful to you. If you have any more questions, please email me.
Best wishes to you,

okay thank you for the advice and there is one other thing can this be spread to my partner and if so how can he be treated?
Answer -
Dear Brumfield,
Thanks again for your question. I do not believe this can
be spread to your partner. If something has passed by some chance though, he should feel or see visible signs that indicate something is wrong.
It is wise though to try to limit or discontinue a sexual union until you are back to health and feeling good once more. It shouldn't take too long at all.
So if in his case there are no symptoms, then there is nothing to worry about. If he is up to it, he can take the Rio-Vida as well, just as a preventative measure, and as an immune building formula.
It is worthwhile looking into such products by reason of
generally seeking illness prevention and health maintenance. So the rio-vida would be a good choice here i believe.

Okay cause my doctor said that it could, and maybe that's why I keep getting it over and over because he needs to be treated for it as well.
AnswerHello,
Thanks for the question. I understand what you mean.
What i can suggest is that you follow the protocol i have outlined for you, and once everything is back to normal,
the problem should not repeat itself.
If it does, that then would be an indication that he could have something. But again, it is a good idea for him to get onto the Rio-Vida as well, as an immune boost.
Then hygiene should be paid special attention to. The Rio-Vida can actually be applied externally as well, not just taken internally! So if there seems a danger, then it can be applied externally, daily for a few weeks or so.
And you two will be fine!
Best Wishes
