Is it possible my gynecologist missed the bacterial vaginosis?!
Question: I thought I had the symptoms but my doctor said she didn't find it and couldn't smell anything. Is it possible that she missed it or that the test was wrong? Should I ask for another test?

If your doctor performed the test and it came up negative, I would go with that. If you are still not sure, or want to try and rule out something else, I would suggest going to the drug store and picking up one of those home self tests from Vagisil.

If you are experiencing discomfort and discharge or smell, ask for a retest. I'd see another doctor or go to a clinic.
