Understanding BV

Many different kinds of bacteria and other organisms exist naturally in your vagina. When certain bacteria grow more than they should, they may create a pH imbalance that can lead to BV.

What are the symptoms of BV?

Some women don't experience any symptoms, but those who do normally notice:

Thin, white or gray discharge
Discharge that may have a fishy odor
Vaginal itching
Burning while peeing

Guess what? BV is very common.

Over 21 million women in the US have had BV.

Is XACIATO right for you?

How is BV different from a yeast infection?

	BV	Yeast Infection
Discharge	Thin, with a fishy odor	Thick and usually odorless
pH	Rise in your pH	No change in pH
Treatment	Prescription medication	Prescription or over-the-counter medication
