I explain why BV is never just a “vaginal issue,” how the gut–vaginal axis, immune system, partner microbiome, and biofilms keep you stuck, and why the standard 7–10 days of antibiotics plus probiotics almost always fails. You’ll learn how I properly test for BV vs aerobic vaginitis, build a real treatment plan (for you and your partner), and why clearing this for good can change your chances of getting and staying pregnant.In this episode, you’ll learn:Recurrent BV is a whole-system problem, not just a vaginal microbiome issueAntibiotics fail because they ignore biofilms, the gut-vaginal axis, and the partnerBV and aerobic vaginitis are two different conditions requiring two different treatment approachesMen are often silent carriers, and both partners must be treated for infections to actually clearBiofilm disruption is the missing step most practitioners skip entirelyClearing a deep infection takes 6 to 12 weeks minimum, not a 7-day antibiotic courseUnresolved BV directly impacts cervical mucus, sperm survival, implantation, and miscarriage riskAbout Dr. Jane’s PracticeI’m a Naturopathic Doctor and Natural Fertility Expert.
