Getting an IUD removed is not likely to reduce the incidence of bacterial vaginosis. Some women notice an increased problem with BV when changing to the IUD because they have stopped using condoms. You might consider trying to use them, at least temporarily.
Changes in lifestyle can be helpful in reducing the risk of recurrence. These include avoiding perfumed vaginal products, using mild soap (not deodorant or antibacterial) in the vaginal area, avoiding douching, using condoms, wearing thong underwear only occasionally rather than daily, and making sure that if you have any anal sex play, you wash the finger, sex toy, or penis before it goes into your vagina.
