5 years of misdiagnosed BV = a true nightmare Tired of the confusion and recurring symptoms of misdiagnosed BV or yeast infections? We totally get it! BV and yeast infections are often confused with different types of infections. Here’s how to tell the difference ⬇️ 👀 Yeast Infection: Think thick, white discharge (often described as “cottage cheese”), intense itching, and redness around your vulva. No strong odor. 🐟 Bacterial Vaginosis (BV): Often shows up as a thin, grayish discharge and a noticeable fishy odor, especially after sex. Itching can happen, but it isn’t always as intense. Noticeable odor right after seggs or strenuous activity like working out. The key difference? BV is caused by an overgrowth of harmful bacteria in the vaginal microbiome, while an overgrowth of yeast causes yeast infections. The treatments are completely different, so if you’ve been treating what you think is a yeast infection with no relief, BV might be the REAL culprit. ✨ Here’s what to do 👉 Consider Happy V’s Prebiotic + Probiotic, which contains 7 clinically proven probiotic strains that break through the biofilm caused by the bad bacteria, eliminating it, and repopulating the vagina with good bacteria. This, in turn, helps balance your vaginal pH back to healthy levels and prevent BV from coming back. Been there, too? Share your story or DM us if you need help navigating your next steps.
