I don't know what you are really looking for. if you were treated then you don't have it anymore and you can meet someone and have sex.

I would also suggest seeing a therapist due to your anxiety.

BV has nothing to do with sex.

Bv is an overgrowth of bacteria in the vagina.  It's most common on females who are sexually active but it's not sexually transmitted per say.

is odor emabarassing? yes it is but it happens.  When you have sex, use a condom - it keeps your partner's sperm from altering the ph of your vagina.  Should you get a return of odor or itching or discharge, return to your provider for proper testing and treatment.

Bv is the least of your worries when it comes to sex :)
