BV is an imbalance of bacteria in the vagina. Since ejaculate is basic and not acidic, having ejaculate in the vagina increases the pH and causes BV.

Trich is harder to diagnose and is often missed in women with BV, particularly if they were diagnosed without the health care provider looking under the microscope at the vaginal discharge.
