There are Many Bacterial Vaginosis Home Remedies But Only One Helped Me

Bacterial vaginosis is an inflammation of the genitourinary tract (GIT) of women. The infection is characterized by a thick, white, fishy smelling discharge from vagina. B.V. is caused due to growth of a set of bacteria leading to pH imbalance in the affected area.

This is followed by redness, swelling, pain and burning sensation to the infected woman. Bacterial vaginosis home remedies include a variety of substances, like for instance, cold water, yogurt and tea just to mention a few. B.V. is easily curable via home remedies and some precautionary measures involving personal hygiene.

Home remedies prove significant in dealing with the symptoms of bacterial vaginosis. Below I have listed nine home remedies that have proven to give bacterial vaginosis relief.

1 Cotton Plugs with Yogurt

Yogurt can be used either by two ways:
- Applying it directly over the affected area.
- Soak cotton plugs in yogurt and insert it into vagina

Yogurt treatment has been clinically investigated and found to be beneficial, especially for recurring B.V.

2 Chilled Water

A tissue soaked in cold water can be laid across the affected area to obtain relief from redness and swelling due to constriction of blood vessels. This is probably the simplest home remedy for relieving burning sensation and pain.

3 Water Soaked Tea Bags

Take a tea bag and soak it in water. Then put it in the refrigerator and let it cool for a while. Now, apply the tea bag externally to relieve itching.

4 Turmeric Powder Dissolved in Milk

Dissolve turmeric powder in milk and use it until the symptoms disappear. Turmeric powder is anti fungal.

5 Powdered Neem

Neem has excellent antibacterial effects and is always advised for dermatological problems. Neem powder can alleviate bacteria from vaginal site.

6 Garlic - Applied Over the Affected Area or Taken Orally.

Take a garlic capsule every day or apply it directly over the infected area. Wrap a peeled garlic clove in gauze and try to put it in vagina. Repeat the treatment after an interval of 3-4 hours and your infection will likely be reduced.

7 Juice from Pressed Vegetables

Juice from green vegetable, ginger, parsley and garlic also has a good effect over the pain and itching during bacterial vaginosis.

8 Warm Baths with Cedar Oil

When bathing in hot water, you can add a spoon of salt and few drops of cedar oil in it. Cedar oil works well for relieving itching.

9 Leaves of Tracheal

Tracheal is a natural herb and helps the body getting rid of toxins. Make a tea out of a teaspoonful of dry tracheal leaves in a cup with hot water.

For preventive purposes or for avoiding severe B.V. symptoms you should carefully cleanse your underwear, practice clean toilet hygiene as well as taking warm baths often. Items for daily use, such as pillows, bed sheets, towels and the like should me washed separately. The best way to prevent these awful vaginal bacteria is probably to eat yogurt regularly.
