Is Using Peroxide For Bleeding While Suffering From Bacterial Vaginosis Advisable?
I have BV. I have regular check ups and I ALWAYS have BV, no matter what they give me. I ve decided to try the peroxide thing and have been douching with it for 4 days and now I m experiencing light bleeding and (not my period) when I douche with it, whats going on?

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
Using peroxide on the vaginal wall is not advisable specially during the bleeding time., It can be harsh on your delicate vaginal mucosa and can cause a burning sensation in the area.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
