HELP

About a year ago i found out that I had bacterial vagnosis. I went to the gyno, and i was put on medication for it. A week later it came back, so i went back to the doctor and he put me on stronger medication. Then it went away for a little while....I am having a lot of problems now and I do not know what to do. I keep having to go back to the doctors and i cant keep spending the money so any advice would help me please!!!
     My BV (bacterial vagnosis) Seems to reoccur verry often. Ive been to a new doctor since the last time it happened, and since then it just seems to have gotten worse. I get small yeast infections ALL THE TIME. I cant even have intercourse with my boyfriend because half way through it is so painfull. I feel like the walls of my vagina are swollen, and it burns so bad. And now it burns just randomly at all times, and i have a discharge. Please if anybody has any advice. I dont have any stds, im on birth control, my boyfriend has been on medication to make sure he isnt giving it right back....i feel like im taking all the precautions but its not helping :(

seriously thank you guys so much for responding to this. Please -azdebra- keep me updated with your results with the tea tree oil, i think i might give it a try. It sounds like we are having the same problem. I just got treated again for the BV a couple weeks ago...and now i have another damn yeast infection. Im so tired of this.  @ Jaz1989...ive taken that before, and diflucan. Sucky thing is, is that i have to go to the doctors for them to write me a prescription. And i know not to have sex while on meds, but I still get infections either way! I havnt been sexually active for a few months now and i still get them :( Thanks again for the advice guys

Ive had the same thing going on for a long time - recurring yeast infections - stronger and stronger meds to get rid of it and then it comes right back  I've been using tea tree oil - adding it to the monistat inside and out - its definitely feeling better and seems to be getting better...keeping my fingers crossed.  You can get good qualify tea tree oil at most vitamin stores...everything I've read says definitely dilute it - don't use it straight from the bottle.  I'm so sick of this - really hoping I've found my answer
