Is bacterial vaginosis contagious?

Patient's question:

After having sex with a woman who has bacterial vaginosis, will you transmit it to another woman?

Doctor's answer:

If you have sex with a woman who has bacterial vaginosis and then have sex with another woman, there is a possibility but not a certainty of transmission. During the time you have bacterial vaginosis, it is best not to have sex. Pay attention to your dietary habits and develop good ones. Eat less spicy and irritating foods, and consume more vegetables and fruits. Maintain good personal hygiene, change your clothes frequently, and keep your close-fitting clothing clean and tidy.
