Clindamycin and Fem Dophilus

Clindamycin and Fem Dophilus

Q. If I treat my BV with Clindamycin 2% cream, then taking the Fem Dophilus will keep it away correct?

My real question is ... how long should I take the Fem Dophilus? How will I know if I should take one or two tablets?

A. Yes, Clindamycin 2% cream for 7 nights is a good standard treatment. Insert 1 full applicator into the vagina each night.

I'm not a doctor so I can't give medical advise but if I ever got BV again I would (after conventional treatment) take 2 Fem Dophilus by mouth a day for 1 month.

Then go down to 1 capsule a day for another month and then slowly lower the dose still more (eg 1 every second day) until I was not taking any.

All the research show that this gives the best long lasting result.

Fem Dophilus has a good reputation for correcting abnormal bacterial conditions in the vagina.

Fem Dophilus
by: Shania

I used to get bacterial vaginosis almost every month. My gyno suggested Fem Dophilus and since then I have not had another bout of bv. Something about having your period seems to encourage those bad bacteria. The smell was so embarrassing I didn't want to go out. And I'd no sooner get rid of it than I'd get my period and it would come back.

I took 2 Fem Dophilus every day for ages and now I take 1 every day. I get several bottles at the same time so I don't risk running out.
