Women often suffer from recurrent bacterial vaginosis. Are you frustrated that it NEVER seems to go away permanently? Don't fret! There are tons of women in the same boat as you. Your doctor probably prescribes you antibiotics for you bacterial vaginosis. unfortunately. when treating bacterial vaginosis. antibiotics can cause more harm then good.
There are new studies being published that show some funny things about antibiotics. These studies show that treating things with antibiotics can make you more susceptible to these ailments in the future. I'm not saying they are horrible. but lay off of them if you don't need them!
Once you start taking antibiotics for every little sickness you have. you get into a cycle of taking medication. then getting sick cause you're more susceptible. then taking more medication. Where does it end?
If you feel that antibiotics for recurrent bacterial vaginosis may be for you, prepare to deal with the consequences that come along with taking them! You may notice things such as nausea, bad breath, dizziness, and a general feeling of being sick. This happens because taking these medications kills the good bacteria that you have in your system as well as the bad. You rely on these good bacteria for essential functions.
What goes on when you take antibiotics?
Antibiotics tend to wipe out everything in your system. That means that both bad and beneficial bacteria get wiped out at the same time. This can cause all sorts of side effects like bad breath and a general feeling of illness. When you wipe aout all your bacteria you also leave your system vulnerable to new infection.
Antibiotics really throw your whole body off kilter. they mess with your natural balance.
If you decide that antibiotics are the best rout for you make sure you take some precautions while you are taking them and after. As I mentioned earlier a lot of your good bacteria is going to be killed off, so it would make sense to replace them. You can do this by eating a plain yogurt with no sugar added. Look for it to say something like live cultures on it. These live cultures are the good bacteria that your system needs.
The bacteria that cause recurrent bacterial vaginosis are super resilient. These bacteria often will survive a round of antibiotics. then it starts to become resistant to the treatment. Add that on top of the fact that you already killed off all your good bacteria (which can help kill off the bad bacteria) and you start to have symptoms that go away for a while. but never permanently.
Be weary of bacterial vaginosis that is resistant to antibiotics. When you go through a cycle of them make sure you finish everything your doctor gave you. Don't stop taking the medication once you feel better. This is just asking for trouble. Typically the infection will come back, and it may come back resistant to antibiotics.
So what can you do?
If you are considering your option for treating bacterial vaginosis you should really take a look at the various natural cures out there. They are often just as effective as medications, if not more effective.
Not only will you feel a lot better. but you'll be rebalancing your body and helping it effectively fight your recurrent bacterial vaginosis.
