Vaginal infections. Bacterial vaginosis. Yep, we're going there.
Okay, I know vaginal infections are probably not your favorite topic.
But let's be real, they're a thing, and most of us deal with them at some point in our lives.
And BV is among the most common. And is also one of the most likely to be recurrent.
So, if you've had BV, and then you've had it again, and then again, you're not alone.
On today's episode, Certified Nurse-Midwife Sofia Lorelle Campbell shares all about what the heck BV is, ways to know you have it, what the conventional treatments are and why she's ended up seeking out a variety of more integrative, whole-being approaches to it.
Listen to this episode to learn:
- what BV actually is + risk factors
- how to know if you've got BV (without clinical testing)
- what the conventional treatment methods are
- some alternative approaches that may be helpful
- what else might be going on or underlying if BV is recurrent
- how your mindset or life circumstances may be playing a role
- how this might all apply to other health challenges in your life
