Before you read on I have only one sex partner (for three years now, monogamous and have had no std’s recently tested and came back negative.) I take baths daily so I am a clean person.

I found out two weeks ago (from reading medical records) that in January I had Bacterial Vaginosis and my doctor didnt treat me for it. Earlier this month it was discovered that my right ovary and tube were infected and that because the antibiotics wont work and the pain is so excruitiating that it interferes with daily activities. I now have to have surgery to get my ovary removed.

Is is possible that the untreated Bacterial Vaginosis caused this infection?
Any suggestions on how to prevent it from coming back?
Any suggestions on pain management?

I know its alot of questions but I would appreciate some help because the doctors wont give pain meds or f/u for the infection that is still present.
