Honestly, I used to underestimate how much my daily habits were affecting my body’s balance. Bacterial Vaginosis (BV) was something I thought would clear up with just a round of antibiotics. But when it kept coming back, I knew there had to be more to it. That’s when I stumbled upon something surprisingly simple—exercise. Can…
Let’s be real for a moment — dealing with Bacterial Vaginosis (BV) is frustrating enough on its own.

You go through your cycle, think you’re in the clear, and…
If you’ve ever dealt with bacterial vaginosis (BV), you know just how frustrating the whole experience can be—especially when it keeps coming back.
