Question 1

What prescription products work for Bacterial Vaginosis (BV)?

Accepted Answer

We offer the most effective FDA-Approved medication available to treat BV: Metronidazole (Flagyl, Metrogel) & Clindamycin (Cleocin, Clindagel). If you find that one medication works best for you, you'll be able to let your medical provider know upon checkout. Otherwise they'll prescribe the best medication for you based on your symptoms.

Question 2

How do I treat chronic BV or recurrent BV?

Accepted Answer

Though BV has the potential to go away on its own, there are several ways to cure the symptoms of chronic Bacterial Vaginosis. Typically, a medical professional will prescribe you an oral or vaginal antibiotic such as metronidazole, or vaginal Clindamycin. Though antibiotics are intended to kill the bad bacteria, they may not get rid of the bacterial imbalance altogether. Because of this, recurring BV is common. If you want to prevent BV after treatment, our medical providers recommend using [Boric Acid Suppositories](/products/boric-acid) after you've completed antibiotic treatment.

Question 3

How do I get rid of BV at home?

Accepted Answer

While bacterial vaginosis symptoms resulting from chronic BV and recurrent BV both require prescription medication to treat, the good news is you can easily cure BV at home. If over the counter BV cures aren't working, it's very likely that your BV symptoms require prescription-strength BV antibiotics, such as [Metronidazole](/products/metronidazole) (Flagyl). BV symptoms should begin to lessen after a few days, but it is important to take the full course of antibiotics to ensure the BV infection is completely removed from the body.

Question 4

Do you accept insurance for BV Treatment?

Accepted Answer

We do not currently accept insurance for medical provider consultation or prescription costs. We aim to make this treatment accessible for everyone :) The medication cost is included in our prices when shipped from our pharmacy. However, if you choose to pick up medication at a local pharmacy, you may be able to use your insurance to cover that local pharmacy's additional fee.
