Is Masturbation Safe While Having Bacterial Vagniosis?
My Dr told me I have bacterial vaginosis, he gave me medicine for it. But I wanted to know if I can masturbate with no toys involved, just by rubbing my clitoris. How will this effect me? Also will this infection prevent me from being able to conceive in the future?

Hello dear
Under stand your concern
Better to avoid the masturabation during the bacterial vaginosis infections.
As rubbing again increase the chance of infections.
Take proper treatment and confirm the clearance of infections.
Bacterial vaginosis does not affect the fertility in future.
So take proper treatment and maintain proper pelvic hygiene (wash vagina with warm salted water, use lactobacillilus suppository).
Hope you understand.
Best regards
Dr. Sagar
