Let me tell you — if you’ve ever dealt with bacterial vaginosis (BV), you’re probably familiar with that dreaded moment of “uh oh… is it back?” I remember feeling that way myself.

Let’s be honest — talking about vaginal health isn’t exactly casual coffee shop conversation. But when something feels or smells off, it can throw your confidence out the window fast.
