does e coli always cause bacterial vaginosis?

i heard about the way e coli and gardenerella combine to cause bacterial vaginosis for those who are virgins. but does it always combine? ive been wiping back to front and im normal. does that mean e coli never went in my vagina? or it just never combined? or do i have it and i dont know?

Can you be tested for bacterial vaginosis during your period?

I think I have a bacterial infection. I have swelling and itching on my vagina. I thought I had a yeast infection, and treated it. It went away for a few days and now it is back? I have an appointment tomorrow, but now I have started my period. Is this a waste of an appointment? Should I reschedule?
