antibiotics dont harm ur baby at all – BV would cause more risk to ur baby if left untreated.

When taking antibiotics medication, you should finish all of it, as recommended by doctor. If you stop taking the antibiotics before it’s finished, there is a chance that you are getting more resistance to those antibiotics in the future.
For pregnancy, some antibiotics are “recommended for pregnancy”, but I still think it’s best to use natural treatment rather than chemical/ synthetic drugs. For Bacterial Vaginosis Treatment, there are reports that a lot of women suffering from bacterial vaginosis (BV) and using antibiotics’ treatment would experience either recurrent BV or yeast infection not long after their antibiotics’ treatment.
BV is actually because of the imbalance state of “good” and “bad” bacteria in the vagina. The use of antibiotics could even kill more of “good” bacteria. That’s why BV reoccurs, and this condition also allows the vagina to be more susceptible for the yeast infection to grow.
Natural treatment aims to strengthen the immune system in the body, so it can restore the bacterial balance in the vagina in natural way, with less or no side effect.
I hope this information helped. Good luck…

You are at risk at having an early pregnancy. And if you’re sexually active with multiple guys or if the guy you’re having sex with is having sex with other women, you are more likely to get an STD.
