Before considering any treatment be sure that you work with your healthcare provider to assure that any natural treatments that you try are not going to conflict with any medications you are already taking.

One natural treatment known to be effective in the treatment of bacterial vaginosis is the use of natural unsweetened yogurt. There are a couple of ways in which you can use this. One is that you literally paint the walls of the vagina with the yogurt, and since this can be a fairly messy affair before and afterwards, you might also want to wear a pad while the yogurt is within you to avoid spillages! The other method is slightly less messier and involves the use of a tampon. Simply coat the tampon in the unsweetened yogurt and insert into the vagina, replacing every few hours or as needed.

Apart from the use of yogurt as a bacterial vaginosis treatment you also have the option of using garlic as a natural home remedy. Known as your basic wonder-herb, garlic can do just about anything that you need. This remedy is of course, not for the faint nosed.

If you can't stand the smell of garlic then I suggest you get out of the kitchen, but many swear by this method as a great bacterial vaginosis treatment.

Again there are many ways that you use the raw garlic this but the most popular method involves peeling, and wrapping the garlic clove in a piece of gauze and tying it off with unwaxed dental floss.

You then insert this suppository into your vagina leaving a length of the dental floss dangling to be able to pull it out when you need to. This should be done every few hours or overnight until the infection gets better.

Or you could simply try taking these in pill form. The yogurt is available as lactobacillus acidophilus tablets, and the garlic is also available in tablet or powdered form.

And if you don't fancy trying out either of these natural remedies you always have the option of turning to other alternative natural remedies. Bacterial vaginosis treatment methods can run the gamut from apple cider vinegar baths to garlic suppositories to yogurt coated tampons.

Bacterial vaginosis treatments come in many different forms and are reportedly quite effective in providing relief from the irritation of a yeast infection. Work with your physician and decide what treatment is best for you.
