i’m treating bacterial vaginosis right now. i’ve had it in the past and i checked to see if i still had my medication for it. i do but i only have 5 pills left and says to take them twice daily for seven days. but since i only have 5 of them left i want to space them out. do u think it’ll still work effectively? i know i should go to the doctor but it’s so embarrassing now. i’m thinking of going to another doctor. anyways i need some suggestions. also is there any OTC medicine i can take to treat this?? how about home remedies?? please help thanks.

last may i had this bacterial vaginosis again for the nth time and i read in the net that metronidazole can somewhat help me stop this…hoping. it says that i have to take the medicine, 500 mg 2 times a day for 7 days and so i did. i noticed that my scalp was smelly and i thought since our house was old, it may be bcoz of the water and same time the effect of medicine. my other side effect on negazole is i felt dizzy and sometimes i felt like something bumps me hard on my head for seconds, then it’s gone. after 7 days, the smell was still here until now. i changed my towels, comb and changed my pillowcase often. I am using nizoral shampoo for two days now and i duno after that i have slight fever. maybe it’s bcoz of some other things, but my concern is my smelly scalp. i am not sure if i have to shampoo this everyday too. i want to try remedies one by one. does anyone had the same problem?
