Why do you get bacterial vaginitis when you are pregnant? What happens if you have intercourse with it?

Don't have sex with this infection. You will give it to your partner and then he will have to go to the doctor and have it treated.

Its the hormonal changes that cause it, thats nasty shouldnt have sex with, but I dont think it will hurt, but can take longer to heal

..."Pregnant women with BV more often have babies who are born premature or with low birth weight (low birth weight is less than 5.5 pounds).
