If you already have a bacterial vaginosis infection and you don't want to go through the expense right this very minute, try soaking in a warm bath with a little hydrogen peroxide in it. This will start to cleanse the vagina but it will not remove that horrid smell right away.
Next, do not have any sexual relations because the semen will make the smell more pungent and the sexual act will invigorate the growth of yeast so avoid unnecessary contact until you get this under control.
To get rid of the smell quickly and began an aggressive way to eliminate the BV you should purchase probiotics; a bottle will cost under $10 at your local Walmart, Target or CVS store. You can also purchase probiotics at a whole foods or health store like GNC or the Vitamin Shoppe but the cost is a bit higher.
Start the probiotics as soon as you can and within 6 to 8 hours you will notice that the smell will begin to dissipate. By the next morning a complete change will be evident.
I have started a probiotics elimination early in the morning and by late afternoon I was unaware of any smells; by night fall the smell had completely gone.
Be ready to take the probiotics all day - probably 3 tablets 3 times per day. If you continue to consume the probiotics you'll not only completely cleanse your body but you'll build up your system to help stop the abnormal growth of yeast that causes bacterial vaginosis.
Most women only worry about BV when they start to notice the smell but you can counteract that out-of-control bacteria growth just by continuing with probiotics. Yes, you can get this simply by eating lots of yogurt and many food manufacturers are including this in their menus but I would recommend investing in the tablet form because of how quickly it works.
There are plenty of other natural choices to combat bacterial vaginosis but probiotics will eliminate the smell within a day.
