Dr. A,

I know there was a similar question down below, but my situation is slightly different. I was just diagnosed with bacterial vaginosis, which
my OB is treating with metrogel. From what I've read BV brings with it an increased risk of preterm labor/PROM, especially if it isn't
treated with oral medication (the few studies I've read suggest that the use of vaginal cream doesn't seem to improve pregnancy
outcomes in women with BV). What is your experience?

Thanks--
