Is it safe to insert yogurt into my vagina to cure BV while pregnant?

I am 5 weeks pregnant. I have had recurring bacterial vaginosis for about 2 years. I called my obgyn to scehdule my first appointment and i told her that i currently have bv. She advised me they can not treat me in the first trimester because the baby’s organs are forming and any medicine they give me could harm the baby. she said at 12 weeks if the symptoms are still there they can treat me. As for right now I would really like some relief and wanted to try some home remedies. I was thinking of inserting yogurt with an applicator NOT soaked in a tampon. and maybe sitting in a applecide vinegar bath. Do you think this would be safe for my baby?? thanks

    the yogurt, im not so sure about the vinegar, but i know the yogurt wont hirt the baby,.. however i wouldnt be sticking anything that wasnt mean to be put up there into the cavity itself. this can cause more irritation and make any infections you have worse, plus open you up to even more infections. if i was you, id rub the yogurt on the outside portion of your genitalia and maybe within the first inch or so of your vaginal cavity,.. but much more than that could be unsafe. that amount should be just enough to help relieve some of your symptoms.

    however, i am no doctor. at all. ive delt with the same problem ;/ and yogurt helped. but again,.. you should probably ask an actual doctor.

    The yogart wont hurt the baby, but the vinegar will. None of which sounds harmless to your vagina
