Brief Answer:
As below
Detailed Answer:
Hello again dear.
Bacterial vaginosis ( BV ) is an infection that happens inside the vagina.
It cannot lead to the bumps , redness etc that you are having.
They would test you for yeast, and parasites ( trichosomonal infection ) and other bacteria like streptococcus.
Take the flagyl, and continue the antidepressants.
let us hope it gets better.
Take care.
