At 53, you are at the perimenopausal age. Due to reduced estrogen levels. the vaginal lining becomes atrophic and the resistance to infection reduces. Thus, BV is a common result. Antibiotics or boric acid will not work because the cause is estrogen reduction. Without managing the cause, BV will come back as soon as you stop using the antibiotics.

- If by day 25, your BV is not cleared (~1% chance), you can continue using NeuEve Gold once every 3 days to clear BV. If, after you use 3 packs of NeuEve Gold, your BV is not cleared, please contact us. We will help you from that point.
