hi, i'm glad to finally hear from someone who share my concerns. I have had a problem
with bacteria vaginosis for the past ten years and it has ruined my live. I have
isolated my self from people, and is known for the girl who smells like fish. I
have done eveything i know to do to try and correct this problem, but nothing seems to work.
It always come back, my doctor says he is not sure why this problem keeps coming
back, but says likes of women have this same problem. Resently i've started to have bad breath
also. I practice very good hygiene, but when you have tese kind of health problems
what can you do?
