Doctors usually prescribe a medication like Metronidizole tablets or vaginal gel, and I've heard that a tea tree oil douche helps with preventing it, but are there other natural remedies to cure or prevent this unusual feminine infection?

You can douche with half water, half hydrogen peroxide because the natural bacteria in your vagina produces hydrogen peroxide. (cool huh?) Megadoses of vitamin C seems to be helpful. YOu can take as many grams as it takes to bring you to the brink of diarrhea. www.doctoryourself.com. I just found this site and I'm trying the vitamin C myself....These two things have seemed to almost stop my symptoms.....I just started the vitamin C and I'm hopeful. I've tried the tea tree oil and it just manages the symptoms. You can spend much money trying to find the right natural cure for you. I"m hopeful this is going to work for me. Good luck

A bacterial vaginosis could back up to the fallopian tubes and uterus causing permanent sterility. Why would you risk that and try unproven "natural" remedies when effective medication is available? Doucheing with anything, including plain water will increase your chances of getting bacterial vaginosis.

you can try taking acidophilus suppliments and eatting up on yogurt. Also drinking cranberry juice. Also check out the link below for more info.
