10 Home Remedies For BV
Home Remedy #7: Coconut Oil
There is research-based evidence documenting the health benefits of the coconut fruit beyond its use in cooking, as an edible fruit, and in promoting beauty. Coconut oil has antibacterial and antifungal properties and can, therefore, be used as a home remedy for BV.
You can apply coconut oil to a tampon and gently insert it into the vagina. The coconut oil can then kill the culprit microorganisms and help restore a healthy balance of microorganisms within and around the vagina. When selecting the coconut oil to use for this purpose, ensure that you choose cold-pressed organic coconut oil, which contains most of the health benefits.
