I found out I had BV when I was 18 years old (I am now 25). Clueless as to what BV even was, I was soon to become very aware of it. The first symptoms I had of BV were the discharge, they would come and go and I was too embarrassed to ask my parents or anyone else if it was normal or if something was terribly wrong. I never noticed an odor until intercourse with my boyfriend (who has stuck all this out with me for 6 years now). We had just started dating and he noticed the odor a couple weeks before I even did. Finally one night during intercourse I noticed it (I may have even noticed it before but chose to ignore it, kinda like I did with the discharge) I finally asked him what that smell was (all you ladies dealing with reoccurring BV know the horrid smell). I just blurted out with out even thinking "what is that smell" my boyfriend seemed relieved once I said it, he told me he had noticed the odor for a couple weeks now but didn't know how to ask me about it without hurting my feelings. I then, was scared. A million thoughts went threw my head as to what was wrong with me. The next morning I showed up at my OBGYN desperate to see him. My doctor prescribed me metronidazole gel to use twice a day for 7 days and a soap to douce with in-between uses. When I left the doctors office I felt relieved, it wasn't an STD and it was curable after a week of gel. I called my boyfriend and he too was relieved. That was the first time I have ever heard of BV but wasn't too concerned because I got my medicine and I thought I would be well on my way, unfortunately that would not be my last time with BV. After my week of metronidazole was up I got BV again right after my boyfriend and I had intercourse again so I made a trip to the doctor once again the very next day this time he prescribed me the pill form of flagyl, that seemed to last me a good month until I started my cycle then the very next week I had BV AGAIN. I made trips to my doctor at least once every 2 months getting refills for my BV. My doctor would tell me to try having intercourse with condoms and that maybe I was having a reaction the the sperm, I tried that and nothing worked. I finally got so frustrated with it coming back I seemed to have BV more often then being clear of it. I decided to do a little research on my on I spent hours one night reading everything I could find about BV and basically what it concluded was there really was no known cure for reoccurring BV so I began trying everything I could find that helped some women with the same problem as me. The first thing I tried was: ALL THIS OVER A COURCE OF 6 YEARS Refresh gel- It worked, FOR LIKE A DAY as long as I had the gel in me it helped with the smell but right after intercourse the horrid BV would be back The second thing I cam across was: douching with 1/2 Hydrogen Peroxide 1/2 water- it seemed to work with the smell and the discharge was a little better but my BV was never really gone with it. (IDK about you guys but I can tell when my BV even if the smell and discharge are not there, I just do not feel clean down there no matter if I have just gotten out of the shower or not) so I gave up on this as well Third thing (still doing this): All cotton panties: I read wearing all cotton panties helps you breathe down there, I also wear none at night to seems to help but I still have BV once a month 4th: Probiotics and inserting plain yogurt into my vagina- I read so many great reviews on this and for a while I thought that I had found the cure. I inserted yogurt in me with a tampon once and took a probiotic every day for about 2 weeks straight and didn't have a BV outbreak for almost a year. I would take the probiotic randomly when I thought about it ( tired to take them every day but sometimes I would forget) and I went from having BV once a month to almost a year without having BV. Then one day it was like it just quit working, I started having BV again every month 5th: Yogurt inserted vaginally: I inserted the yogurt everyday for seven days and it did nothing. didn't help with the BV at all 6th: Probiotics inserted vaginally: I read to insert the probiotics vaginally I bought like 3 different kinds of probiotics ( the womens health was one, the refresh kind, and another kind that I read was one of the best) again it did nothing 7th: I then was so frustrated I went to walmart and spent about 60 dollars in OTC treatment for BV NOTHING WORKED 8th:(what I'm doing now) Douching with straight hydrogen peroxide: I read that douching with 15mL of hydrogen peroxide for 7 days will help and it does, it seems to help hide some of the symptoms it helps with the odor and I can hide my continuous outbreaks from my boyfriend 9th: (and hopefully last) Boric Acid: I ordered the boric Acid and capsules off desertcart after reading all these great reviews. I am a little nervous due to the fact that it is poison but I am so desperate at this point that it outweighs my nervousness. Tonight is the first night I inserted it and I plan to insert it straight for 14 days, then twice a week for 6 months (because that is what I read) I will keep up with how it works and if the good out weighs the bad. I am hoping and praying for good results and for a cure. I know, if you are going threw what I am going threw with BV how pure AWFUL it is. I hope to have a good of review as everything I have read. Good luck to you and I will be back with my experience with Boric Acid Review: It is what it says. No money wasted. - Same as advertised.

Stir in Crisco - enough so that you can form the mixture into balls. Put the balls all over the place - roll them under appliances, under the sink, etc. The sugar attracts the roaches and they eat the balls, which kills them. It works really, really well. **Q: Can this be used as a mouthwash for oral yeast infections?** A: Of course it can! Boric acid kills all fungal infections. Use a powder not granule form so it mixes easily. Do not inhale the dry powder as it irritates lungs, nose, and throat. Use also for foot fungus, and body soaks in tub. However, fungal issues should be treated systemically. Use probiotics and long term take orally black walnut, capyrlic acid, oil of oregano (wild oregano), grapefruit seed, olive leaf extracts in tablet form. Take any 2 for 2 weeks daily, then switch to any other two, etc. Do for 6 months. Eat Greek yoghurt, kefir, and probiotics at the same time. **Q: How do you use the powder and the suppository? Do you need a capsule maker too?** A: I did not use the capsule maker, the capsules as capacity hold on average 425-700 mg so I just took filled them full. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Desperate *by C***0 on 19 March 2015* Maybe TMI but here is my story: Living with BV has been a nightmare.

Good luck to you and I will be back with my experience with Boric Acid ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It is what it says. No money wasted. *by S***I on 3 September 2023* Same as advertised. Recommend. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ this stuff is great. It kills roaches and pests (and yeast) *by K***E on 6 July 2015* Okay, so, if you consider all things ladyparts-related to be TMI - I suggest you stop now. If you're a woman troubled by how your downstairs is treating you, then please read on, for this product is a MIRACLE. ...well. Yeast infections. Yeah, that's right. This review is going to be about the lack of yeast infections because this works so amazingly. Here's the deal: DO NOT INGEST THIS OR PUT IT ON OPEN WOUNDS. Otherwise, this stuff is great. It kills roaches and pests (and yeast)! After reading about boric acid and yeast infections online, I decided to try this as I was pretty desperate. My hormone imbalances in addition to my IUD was giving me that inevitable itch every month. You know, *that* tickle at the beginning of my monthly cycle. I was spending too much time and money to have the discomfort of OTC yeast infection treatments bothering me when I was trying to treat something that's already ming-bogglingly discomforting in its own right. The Monistat would help, sure, but then I had to wear pads, couldn't get intimate with my boyfriend, and it was just a hassle. A hassle that I was willing to go through for relief, until I finally decided to take the plunge and put this powder in size 00 vegetable capsules with a bit of coconut oil and stick it up there. (I don't use a capsule maker. I sat down one night with gloves and made 30 and put them in a Ziploc and I keep them in a cool, dry place. I also have the bag labeled appropriately - saying "DO NOT INGEST" - this is especially important if you have kids or keep it in a place that someone else might see it and think it's something else.) For real, though, I've been using these for over six months, and the affordable price and convenience and actual, legitimate results are insane. This stuff just kills yeast FAST. If I start to feel that tickle down there, I insert one capsule before bed, and I feel at LEAST 98% better by morning, if not 100%. Sometimes there is some discharge during the day that has a very clear and watery consistency, and if this bugs you, you can wear a panty liner, but if you only insert one (and by all means if you're having a raging infection, insert two) you should not have much of anything happening the next day. I was apprehensive initially because of what the warnings on the bottle say, but as long as the bottle says "NF," I'm under the impression that it's fine as a suppository. Again, do NOT take it orally. This was a godsend. It was so cheap and it will last me forever, and it doesn't hurt me at all. I know OTC Monistat gives a lot of women burning sensations, and nobody should have to go through that for relief. ## Frequently Bought Together - Humco Boric Acid Powder, 6 oz. - De La Cruz Gentian Violet - Violeta de Genciana - Tincture of Violet 1% First Aid Antiseptic, 2 FL OZ - De la Cruz Gentian Violet - Violeta de Genciana - Tincture of Violet 1% First Aid Antiseptic, 1 FL OZ --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/257482024-boric-acid-powder-6-oz](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/257482024-boric-acid-powder-6-oz) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-09-06*
