Positive Negative


BV is treated with antibiotic medicines prescribed by your doctor. Your doctor may give you either metronidazole (met-roh-NIH-duh-zohl) or clindamycin (klin-duh-MY-sin). Generally, male sex partners of women with BV don’t need to be treated. However, BV can be spread to female partners. If your current partner is female, talk to her about treatment. You can get bacterial vaginosis again even after being treated.
