Hi, Cronic BV can occur due to the peroxide producing glan stops and does allow Gardnerella vaginalis and Mycoplasma hominis to over grow. The discharge should have a gray hue and fishey smell. This may have started out with a new partner whose genital flora set things in motion. Cronic BV is not well understood so do follow up with your doc about this. Taking antibiotics and cure it but could also cause another type of yest infection. Its like a revolving door but can be successfully treated.
