can my boyfriend give me a vaginosis bacterial infection?

Ok... I have had so many issues with uti, yeast infections, etc..
My bf is a diabetic..which is soooooo much worse for me. After 6months of terrible yeast infections (after I started dating him) and tons of research. I started giving him cinnamon. Since he is a diabetic this helps his Sugar balance. He also drinks enough alcohol that it really affects him (he shouldn't drink...but he's an adult and I can't tell him what to do) again the cinnamon helps. If you take a probiotic daily (I'm lactose intolerant) biotin 10000mcg/day this really helps your hair skin and nails (including your lady heal (if your guy is large like mine) and you can take the cinnamon as well. You will be shocked at the improvement.
AND....you can totally not match up fluid wise. My ex husband and I did not mix well. It was terrible. I would always smell gross immediately after. I never wanted to have sex with him because of it. Try the above advice. I think you'll be very happy.

where can you find boric acid?

I must say I agree with the previous post. I suffered BV once before many years ago with a new boyfriend & the Dr then put it down to overuse of fragranced products down below (I was paranoid of being 'smelly'!) He treated me with a suppository thing & it cleared. Now, years later, I suffer everytime I have sex with my current partner. It always starts the 2nd day after sex & is so bad I notice when it starts even when I am simply stood at work. I have now discovered chewable Probiotic tablets but after researching on forums discovered the best method was to actually use as a suppository. So now, the 1st night after the last time we have sex I pop one inside, just like inserting a tampon. Push it in as far as you can with your finger. It absolutely works in that the good bacteria rebalences the upset PH balance that the sperm has caused. Honestly, try it & I'm sure you won't look back. These are the ones that I swear by, the chewables are the best as they dissolve whilst you sleep. I keep some at work in case Ive forgotten the night before & at the first whiff I nip to the loos (but always use a pantyliner if using during the day as you might encounter some residue leakage)...... 
I hope this will help some of you like it has me :) xx

What type of specialist did you see?

I TOTALLY AGREE

Please me too! I've been with my partner over a year. No cheating no other partners. Only him! In this time we've only used a condom once, I've a had a bacteria l infection over 7 times its sooooooo annoying and I find out almost 2 months later. I'm sick of it. I asked my doctor can my bf take the antibiotics that I am given and he says theres no point that guys don't get Infected. Well I surely think they do I've been washing with the same dove soap since I was a virgin and washing with the same laundry detergent. I've never caught a BV until now. I stopped having sex unprotected with my bf for about 4 months and I haven't caught it but this will eventually break us up which is sad. I refuse to smell that awful smell again!!!!

I have been married for 5 years, with my husband for 9 years. A have not had any other partners in 10 years and as far as I know he hasn't either. I have never had bv before this year. (I'm a 32years old mother of 3). It's crazy he went on a trip came back we had sex and boom! Bv! It's been 7 months of treatment. Everytime it goes away we have sex and it comes back, it makes no difference if he ejaculats in me or not. My doctor told me it can be sexualy transmitted but is commonly not. she suggested my husband take antibiotics. I haven't told him about any of this yet because everyone said it's a woman thing. I didn't see the point in talking about it. But now, after talking with my doctor we think I need to talk to hI'm about trying the treatment. It can't hurt. So awkward because I don't think he cheats but I do think it's passing back-and-forth between us. If it's passing between us it could easily pass to another woman. So yes it can be sexualy transmitted.

If u take a bath before you have sex and put ur finger inside ur Vigina it kills the smell I usually replace my vigina oils with lubricant after the bath it works and ur boyfriend or husband will never know I always wash out before having sex I have the same problem with bacteria also

Me an my boyfriend have been dating for months always use condoms the 1 time we didn't I got bv. I told him back to condoms till he go to Dr.

BV IS sexually transmitted! I know from personally experience. I was with my ex husband for 7 years and had reoccurring episodes of bv. He was cheating as well. I mean nothing I did helped. I changed my soaps, eating habits used antibiotics to no prevail. Once kicked him to the curb, I have had no issues. I am in a new relationship with NO issues! Not one! You CAN get bv from a male who is sleeping around. Go with your own instincts. "Studies and science" is not proof of everything! Use your own intuition!

I completely agree. I just got diagnosed with BV and negative std results, but my boyfriend has pain when urinating and he was peeing blood. We got treated "just in case" it's an std, and both his and my symptoms went away. So I think BV is transmitted sexually. And yeast infections are too. I don't care what the doctors say.

I am 46yrs old and didn't have sex for 7 yrs after my divorce. I started dating my boyfriend and a couple months after that I started getting utis and bv every time we had sex I went to a urologist and found out I had herpes . I had to have got it from him there are lots of different types he had no break outs or anything so you really should be tested for that. Because I had a small brakout you couldn't see and so every time I would wipe after peeing it was giving me a uti. If you get it checked out fast they can treat u and u will never have a break out again. Hope this helps

I do believe that sleeping with your BF having unprotected sex is a factor but it doesn't ALWAYS mean he's cheating. However , my experience he was. I never had BV before & since June have had 5x this is ridiculous & Gyn visits it's unreal. EVERYTIME we had sex is when I'd notice it , anyways come to find out he WAS CHEATING AND UNFAITHFUL and sleeping with another then me. Since I left him (only been month) I haven't had one. I'll follow up in few months. I'm wondering since the cheater is out my life will this go away. Just my personal experience. I'll follow up. I hope but well

Agreed ! ^^ I'm not sleeping with anyone else yet, but had same experience. I'm just getting over one soon and kicked him to the curb because he was cheating. WOW thanks I'm curious to see if it comes back. Thank you
