Greetings.

 

Although BV is not considered a sexually transmitted disease, sexual activity has been linked to development of this infection. It is more of the overgrowth of the bacteria in vagina. Please read the causes of the BV in this resource;

There are no over the counter medicines for the treatment, I am afraid.

 

Please feel free for your follow up questions.
