10 Home Remedies For BV
Home Remedy #3: Apple Cider Vinegar
One of the many uses and benefits of apple cider vinegar is the treatment of BV. As mentioned earlier, the vaginal environment is maintained by a mix of bacteria and fungi whose balance is key in sustaining vaginal health. Changes in acidity are some of the characteristics that promote the onset of BV.
Apple cider vinegar contains lactic acid, which is not only able to kill bacteria but also contribute to restoring the right vaginal acidity. It can be mixed with water and used to clean the vagina. It can also be taken by mouth. For a start, add a cup and half of apple cider vinegar to bathing water and sit in the mixture for about 20 minutes. Repeat this for three days.
