Best Answer

Mirena does not cause bacterial vaginosis. Some women who stop using condoms when they start Mirena may have an increase in problems with BV. Using condoms may decrease the odds of recurrence.

Changes in lifestyle can be helpful in reducing the risk of recurrence. These include avoiding perfumed vaginal products, using mild soap (not deodorant or antibacterial) in the vaginal area, avoiding douching, using condoms, wearing thong underwear only occasionally rather than daily, and making sure that if you have any anal sex play, you wash the finger, sex toy, or penis before it goes into your vagina.
