Vaginal Yeast Infections Archives

Is Bath Good or Bad for Yeast Infection?

Yes, baths are recommended for controlling the symptoms of yeast infection like itching, burning, swelling and pain. No remedy works fast enough to relieve these annoying symptoms; so while one waits for the effects of any medication (natural or otherwise) against the infection, one can use different types of baths for instant relief from symptoms. Baths are not the same as douching. While in douching, the vagina is washed internally, baths only wash the vagina externally. Douches are definitely not recommended for yeast infections as they are likely to increase them (unless you follow our douching protocol here). Baths on the other hand can provide instant symptomatic relief and some reduction in the yeast infection. Baths can be taken in a normal bath-tub filled only to cover the pelvic region, or in sitz-baths that are specially designed shallow baths. Baths should be warm, not hot or cold.

Good baths

Good baths are baths that take care of the following issues:

They maintain the acidity of the vagina
They do not kill off natural vaginal bacteria
They do not have potentially harmful side-effects for you or, in case of pregnancy, to the baby
They do not kill the sperm if you are wanting to become pregnant

Bad baths

Bad baths will, on the other hand, have some or all of the issues that good baths manage to take care of.

Benefits of baths

Can quickly relieve the symptoms of yeast infection like itching and burning
Some products added to the baths may reduce the yeast infection

Side effects of baths

Some compounds added to the bath have sperm-killing activity. Although baths are not internal, you should be careful with these if you want to become pregnant.

Follow instructions when using any of the baths. Inappropriate use can cause damage to your own tissues and not be really useful in controlling candida either (as injured tissues are more prone to candida proliferating and growing.

Some products added to the baths may kill the useful bacteria and increase your yeast infection.

Some products used in the baths may have a strong dependence on the concentration at which they are used and can be harmful when used at sub-optimal concentrations.

Is apple cider vinegar bath a good option?

Apple cider vinegar (ACV) was tested in 2008 in full-denture wearers to check its activity against Candida. The study carried out by a group from Brazil. They found that keeping the dentures overnight in 10% solution of ACV reduced the number of candida in the oral cavity. However, it was unable to get rid of it completely. Another study published in 2015 by another group of scientists from Brazil has shown that different concentrations of ACV kill different types of Candida. ACV also reduced the ability of Candida to adhere to the dentures – perhaps this effect could be similar to adherence to the mucous membranes. The candida inhibiting activity of ACV could therefore also be helpful in case of vaginal candida infections. This study also considered 4% malic acid in ACV to be the active component against candida. Therefore, only undistilled, unfiltered ACV is likely to have significant inhibitory effect on candida. It will be important to note that if apple cider vinegar has been produced from apple cider that has undergone malolactic fermentation (a type of fermentation used to remove the sourness in ciders and wines) will have much lower levels of malic acid, and may not be as effective as anti-candida agent. Additionally and additively, the acidity of vinegar (which is similar to the acidity of a healthy vagina) could be responsible for inhibiting the growth of candida. Please note: you should never use undiluted ACV for baths; always use the dilutions recommended by your health-shop/natural health practitioner.

Is distilled vinegar good yeast infection bath?

As described above, maleic acid in ACV has been considered the active component against candida. Distilled vinegar, which is made from fermentation of distilled alcohol, lacks malic acid. It has acetic acid as its main component. Even distilled ACV is not likely to have the same impact against candida as ACV. While scientists from Lithuania found in 2014 that acetic acid was very active in killing candida, they also found that it killed a lot of the mammalian cells as well. Thus, use of strong, undiluted acetic acid can also be detrimental to your own tissues. Vinegars (of any type) should therefore always be used at the prescribed doses in the prescribed manner.

This may sound weird but a friend of mine told me that red wine vinegar helped her. What do you think?

Grapes have a high content of malic acid. But wines, most often than not, undergo a process of conversion of malic acid to lactic acid to reduce sourness. Vinegar made from such wines will be lacking in malic acid which is active against candida. In 2003, a study conducted by Spanish scientists on different types of vinegars found that wine vinegars were lower in malic acid content and there was absolutely no malic acid in red wine vinegars fermented without wood. Thus, it is likely that the effectivity of red wine vinegar against candida will depend on the quality of wine and the processes used to make the wine itself.

I have heard Aveeno oatmeal bath for yeast infection is good. Is that true?

Yes. Aveeno oatmeal is colloidal oatmeal. It has been used for centuries to relieve itch and irritation from dry skin due to winter, lengthy showers or harsh soaps. Researchers from Skin Research Center of Johnson & Johnson in USA found in 2008 that Avenanthramides, which are present in oats are potent anti-inflammatory agents and these give the anti-irritation capacity to oats. In 2012, researchers from Johnson & Johnson Santé Beauté France together with a dermatologist also from France showed from data collected in 10 countries that colloidal oatmeal is a safe and effective ingredient in personal care products and has low propensity to cause allergies. The anti-irritation, anti-itch property of oatmeal is utilized by Aveeno oatmeal bath to provide relief from symptoms of yeast infection.

Is baking soda bath good?

The study by Lithuanian scientists published in 2014 also tested the effect of baking soda on stopping the growth of candida. They found that baking soda at a certain concentration did cause killing of candida cells. If the concentration of baking soda was reduced, it actually promoted the change of oval form of candida to the hyphal/fibrous forms which are actually more infective. On the other hand, they also found that baking soda at concentrations that killed candida also killed mammalian cells in a big way.

You also need to remember that baking soda will increase the vaginal pH. This also will make the yeast happier and make them grow more.

Hence, we would suggest an extremely careful use of baking soda baths as not doing so can actually be injurious to your own tissues or may even increase your issues with yeast infections.

Are baking soda baths safe for diaper rash or during pregnancy?

Baking soda baths have been recommended for treating diaper rash. However, it is important to point out that indiscriminate use of anything that seems very household and innocuous may not really be safe. A case study presented in 1981 by doctors from USA showed that indiscriminate use of baking soda for treating diaper rash caused the 4 month old baby to suffer from hypokalemic metabolic alkalosis (excess bicarbonate in the blood causing it to become alkaline). Baking soda was absorbed by the baby through its skin causing the disorder.

Transfer of bicarbonates across placenta is slow as is described in a recent article by researchers from University of Toronto. This would mean that if you use sodium bicarbonate baths and absorb the bicarbonate through your skin, the fetus will not immediately get affected. However, as mentioned earlier, indiscriminate use of anything can be dangerous.

What types of bath salts can I use?

Bath salts of any kind are not recommended for candida infections. Bath salts contain salt, Epsom salt and baking soda, all of which by themselves can change the natural bacterial balance of the vagina through both their alkalinizing action as well as anti-bacterial action and thereby increase your yeast infection problems.

Is Kosher salt different and does it help?

Kosher salt is only different from normal salt in that it lacks any additives and is different with respect to its crystals. Chemically it is otherwise the same. It is therefore unlikely to help.

Do you recommend Epsom salt baths for yeast infection?

Epsom salts have been shown to reduce inflammation caused by endotoxins.

Is bleach bath ok?

Bleach can be chlorine based or peroxide based. Chlorine based bleach have strong anti-bacterial properties in addition to anti-fungal activity. If you use bleach in your bath, it will kill both the good and the bad bacteria and fungi, leading to imbalance in the vaginal microflora. This can actually cause yeast to come back with a vengeance.

What do you think about hydrogen peroxide bath?

We will be answering the question in another article make sure to check back.

I have heard a lot of great things about boric acid bath. Is it good?

A study from India, published in 2006, showed that diabetic women who had infection with certain species of candida responded better to boric acid vaginal suppositories as compared to the anti-fungal fluconazole. A recent study (2015) by scientists from USA shows that boric acid inhibits the invasive growth of candida by destabilizing its invasive hyphal/filamentous form. It has been described, in 2011 by another group of researchers from Greece, to be a safe alternative when conventional treatment fails. However, adverse effects caused by boric acid include vaginal burning sensation, water discharge during treatment and vaginal redness.

Since 2010, Boric acid is on the high concern list and declared to be toxic to reproduction with potential to impair fertility and cause harm to the unborn child by European chemicals agency. While you will find arguments against this mentioning no human studies having been carried out, there are studies from 1977 and 2006 that have showed that vaginal treatment (in the form of vaginal tablets) with boric acid increases the risk for congenital defects in human babies by 2.6-2.7 fold. However, another study from 1998 does mention that topical vaginal application is unlikely to cause any damage as the absorption of boric acid is limited unless the skin or vaginal epithelium is severely damaged. But think about this: you have vaginal infection where candida has already damaged your tissues to some extent, to which is added injury to the tissues from constant itching, how undamaged would the vaginal tissue be? We therefore recommend you to use boric acid baths with extreme caution – especially if you are in the reproductive period of your life and would like to have a healthy child.

Is borax bath a good option?

Borax is a salt of boric acid. Since 2010, borax has also been added to substance of very high concern candidate list and has been declared to be toxic to reproduction by the European Chemicals agency. It has the potential to impair fertility and to cause harm to the unborn child. Our recommendations on borax bath will therefore be similar to those for boric acid.

What do you think about buttermilk bath?

There is not much data out there for us to say anything. Keep an eye on our youtube channel for answer to this question in future.

I heard that in India they do milk bath. Can that help give yeast infection relief?

There is no data to back that up.

What is your take on coconut oil bath?

Coconut oil is a great for candida yeast infection. Here is a video we did on the topic on our youtube channel.

I heard that in many countries essential oils are used as bath. Is that true and does it work?

What do you think about lemon bath?

While in the past there have been contradicting reports on the use of lemon essential oils, a research group from Poland published an article in 2014 showing that different commercial lemon essential oils had different activity against Candida growth. They showed that if the essential oils from lemon were higher in their content of oxygenated monoterpenes, their antifugal effects were higher. They also showed that a particular ratio of the two different kinds of oxygenated monoterpenes could be important to stop the growth of Candida strains that are more resistant to lemon essential oils. According to these scientists, use of lemon essential oils to treat candidiasis is an interesting solution due to their documented safety.

What is garlic bath?

While I have never heard about the garlic bath for yeast infection. Garlic itself is a great antifungal you can take for candida.

Can baths prevent yeast infection as well?

Yes, some baths may be able to prevent yeast infection. For example, ACV bath may be helpful in restoring the vaginal pH, thereby preventing yeast growth.

I tried lavender bath once and it helped. Do you think it can also help prevent?

If it helped you then continue, we don’t have any data at this stage.

Vaginal Yeast Infection Cleansing

by Eric Bakker N.D.

I regularly receive emails from women all over the world about vaginal yeast infection cleansing. A vaginal yeast infection is more common than you may think, millions of women is America have an annoying yeast infection, and many have a recurring problem. Have you seen my may You Tube videos about these kinds of yeast infections?

If you have a vaginal yeast infection and are in an intimate relationship it is best that you take precautions with your partner, it is easy to transmit a yeast infection between males and females, but also between females. I’ve seen countless cases of women who infected their male or female partners, and also plenty of males who kept reinfecting their partners too. You will need to be especially vigilant and careful with hygiene, make sure that both people in the relationship observe a very high level of personal hygiene. While a Candida yeast infection is not a serious sexually transmitted disease like gonorrhea, chlamydia or syphilis, it can easily be transmitted from one person to another.

I want you to know one very important thing about curing this problem – you simply MUST treat this problem both internally, as well as externally. Follow my Candida Crusher Diet, in my book you will find an incredible amount of information on what to eat, and on what to avoid. Chapter 5 of Candida Crusher book outlines a great summary of the best vaginal yeast infection treatments, and here is some information from that summary:

Using A Vaginal Applicator To Cure A Candida Yeast Infection

There are different types of applicators you can get. Some women prefer a smaller, soft silicone device that is available, others may like to use a turkey baster. It all depends on what you feel comfortable using. Using an applicator is not that difficult, do observe hygiene and ensure the applicator is inserted as far as possible without applying too much force. Here are eight points to consider when using an applicator:

Wash your hands.
Draw sufficient yogurt (or douche mixture) into the applicator.
Lie on your back, draw your knees up a little and spread them apart.
Gently insert the applicator with the tablet in front into the vagina as far as possible, do NOT use force.
Depress the plunger so that the yogurt (or douche mixture) is released.
Withdraw the applicator.
Clean both parts of the applicator thoroughly with soap and boiled, lukewarm water (if not disposable).
Wash your hands.

The Yogurt Douche Method

Yogurt has been used for centuries as a vaginal treatment, is is soothing, cooling and rich in lactic acid. A lactic acid rich product allows proliferation of lactobacillus species to thrive, and discourages yeasts from growing. It is especially nice to use if your vagina is burning or stinging. Be patient, give it time to work.

You will require up to two tablespoons of room temperature yogurt and an applicator. The technique is very simple; you just pull out the plunger (or squeeze the bulb if you use a baster) and fill with sufficient yoghurt, then gently insert the tip into the vagina and squeeze the contents gently inside. Get yourself in a comfortable position you normally would if you were going to do a douche.

Make sure you use a good quality and preferably organic yogurt, and please avoid those commercial supermarket types of yogurt that are full of sugars and fruits. You will want a plain acidophilus yogurt without ANY sugars, so do read the label carefully.

Do not rinse the vagina afterwards, just rinse the outside gently and pat dry. You will want to wear a maxi pad generally to minimize any possible leakage, and most women will do this before bed and leave in overnight.

In the morning you will want to have a good wash in the shower or bath naturally and preferably wear a mini pad that day to prevent any residual leakage.

The three basic treatment options for the yogurt douche are:

Use pure natural organic low fat plain yoghurt.
Use a mixture of purified water and yogurt to thin the mix.
Use the whey liquid – most powerful way (the liquid on top of the yogurt)

Yogurt Tampon Treatments

Some women will use a tampon they have rolled in yogurt, but after recommending this form of treatment for some time, I don’t find the yogurt tampon as effective as the tea tree oil tampon, which is what I now recommend. To make a tea tree oil tampon work the most effectively, use the pure oil or use the water-soluble form of tea tree and make a strong solution of five parts of water and one part of water-soluble tea tree oil, soak the tampon and leave overnight.

The strongest tampon treatment is when you use grapefruit seed extract (GSE). Try this for very stubborn vaginal thrush: Soak a tampon in 1 tablespoon vegetable oil like organic sunflower oil and add from 5 – 10 drops of GSE, make sure you mix the vegetable oil and GSE very well. Insert the tampon and leave overnight. Repeat for 3-4 nights. This is one of the most effective local vaginal thrush treatments you can do, try it, you will be surprised. I‘ve seen it shift even impossible cases. Start with the water-soluble tea tree oil tampon treatment first for 3-4 days; if it fails then try the GSE or alternate treatments.

Vaginal Pessary Recipe:

A tea tree oil tampon will clear up many vaginal fungal problems, sometimes even within a day or two.

To make a vaginal pessary you will need:

1 tampon
Several drops of tea tree oil.

Remove tampon from its wrapper and pour a few drops of tea tree oil across the top and sides. Insert the tampon, as you would do during your periods. As when you have your period, change the tampon after a few hours.

Some women may be sensitive to pure tea tree oil, although I have not found this to be the case in 90% of women. Try a drop on the inside of your wrist first. If you don’t want to use the pure oil, soak a tampon in a tablespoon of warm water to which you have added ¼ teaspoon of the water-soluble tea tree oil, and you can use a one part water-soluble tea tree oil to five parts of water if you wish.

Vaginal Suppository Treatments with Boric Acid

by Eric Bakker N.D.

Some people get concerned when I talk about an acid when it comes to vaginal treatment, thinking that it will burn and cause a lot of pain, but this is untrue. It is important to remember that vinegar and lemon juice are kinds acid too and are equally safe to use.

Boric acid is a safe and non-toxic white crystalline powder that has anti-fungal and anti-bacterial qualities and is available without a prescription. It is has many different applications and is a very effective insecticide as well, mix it with oil and it will attract ants and roaches that will die after eating it. A good remedy for oral thrush in infants is the homeopathic remedy Borax 6 c.

Boric Acid Vaginal Suppository Treatment is particularly effective for stubborn and resistant cases of vaginal yeast infection when used in conjunction with the two phase Build and Kill stages you just read before.

How to Make Boric Acid Vaginal Suppositories

It is definitely simple to have your own boric acid suppositories, basically buy some 00 gelatin capsules and fill them with boric acid, around 500 to 600 mg. You can buy boric acid along with the gelatin or cellulose two-piece capsules through your pharmacy (drug store) or a decent health-food shop.

Make a lot of them up at once because they will keep for a very long time if stored dry and cool for at least a year. When you store them, place them in a container (use an old vitamin container) and drop in a sachet or two of those little packets of silicon which will help to keep your caps free of moisture and potentially harden up over time. Don’t keep in the refrigerator.

Treatment Method

Insert one capsule at bedtime for a seven to ten day period. Alternate with lactobacillus acidophilus treatment in the day and boric acid at night. For recurring and stubborn cases treat for 30 days straight and after the month treat two days out of seven for even up to one year. Best results in the impossible cases are when you alternate this treatment with the GSE treatment, AND use the two-phase protocol outlined above. Treat even during your period, but stop on the few days when your flow is the heaviest.

Caution: Stay away from such treatments (as given) if you are pregnant, please consult with your physician. Make sure to keep boric acid away from kids.

Fantastic Aromatherapy Treatments for Vaginal Thrush

by Eric Bakker N.D.

According to one Salvatore Battaglia, who wrote the textbook widely regarded as one of the world’s best books on the subject of aromatherapy, (The Complete Guide to Aromatherapy, The Perfect Potion, 1995) the best essentials oils to for a yeast infection are German chamomile, geranium, lavender, lemongrass, myrrh, petit grain, tea tree and thyme.

Aromatherapy Treatment

The treatment Salvatore recommends is baths and local applications of essential oils. The oils mentioned above have been selected because of their antiseptic, antifungal and immune-stimulating properties. A sitz bath is very effective for vaginal irritation; 2-3 drops of the essential oil should be added to the bidet or large bowl of warm water and used twice daily if symptoms persist.

The Aromatherapy Douche for Itching And Soreness

Valerie Ann Worwood (The Fragrant Pharmacy. MacMillan, London, 1990) recommends a douche using whole milk yogurt containing live acidophilus cultures.

German chamomile 5 drops

Lavender oil 5 drops

Tea tree oil 5 drops

Add the above oils to a 100-gram carton of fresh yogurt. The yogurt combined with the essential oils has the dual action of antibiotic and antifungal properties. Use Valerie’s method if there is a considerable amount of soreness and incessant itching. Use either an applicator for inserting pessaries or a tampon applicator.

Another way of using yogurt is by diluting it with warm spring water until you have made a thin fluid. Then the essential oils are added and this mixture is used in a douche, washing the vaginal tract twice daily.

The Tea Tree Oil Douche

Tea tree oil is one of the best natural medicines you will ever use with a yeast infection, but please be sure to get the Australian Tea Tree Oil. I have recommended Tea Tree Oil for over twenty years for yeast infections and am never disappointed with the fantastic feedback I routinely get from patients. The best maple syrup comes from Canada and the best Tea Tree Oil comes from Australia.

Get the pure oil for stubborn skin areas, especially on the feet and toes as well as toe nails. It is totally safe to use on nails, and unlike thyme or oregano oil, there is little risk in this oil causing any burning sensations.

Place about 300mls tepid water into a shallow bowl, add 1 teaspoon water miscible (water-soluble) Tea Tree Oil and mix well. Fill a douche bag with the tea tree solution and apply as required to the vagina. The tea tree oil is anti-inflammatory but also an effective anti-fungal.

Tea Tree Oil Vaginal Pessary and Douche Combo – Even Better

Australian Tea Tree Oil is one of the best things you can use when you have a vaginal yeast infection, it’s just one of those medicines that works consistently time and again.

A Tea Tree Oil douche has been used and recommended by alternative medicine doctors for over 50 years now for vaginal yeast infections, literally since the discovery of the remarkable natural antifungal.

Use from eight to ten drops of the pure Australian Tea Tree Oil in 500 milliliters (or 1 pint) of tepid purified or distilled water. Douching in between pessary applications seems to be the best solution in ridding your vagina from the discomfort including the burning and incessant itching of a candida vaginal yeast infection.

Try Water-Soluble Tea Tree Oil

For women who want to use Tea Tree Oil in a douche will need to get the water-soluble Tea Tree Oil, you can use the pure oil or you can get a water-soluble Tea Tree Oil, see what works best for you. I have known several people over the years that have successfully treated their own cracked heels, tinea, athlete’s feet with a warm foot spa, and including in the water plenty of water-soluble tea tree oil.

Those of us who use essential oils and know them well will tell you that apart from oregano oil, tea tree essential oil is the best anti-fungal used straight on stubborn areas of skin, jock itch, fungal nails. Use the Tea Tree Oil as spot skin, scalp or nail treatment, and use the water-soluble tea tree oil for when you want to do a douche or wash areas of skin in general.

Related articles:

Tea tree oil can be applied directly to candida skin problems (especially the toes or with athletes foot) or add to bath water. The water-soluble Tea Tree Oil is perfect for candida yeast infected patients; use a small amount (about 1/4 – 1/2 teaspoon to 1 cup of tepid water) as a douche or to wash the skin, feet or other areas of the body. This is the one time I do recommend that you use a tampon – make up a solution of water soluble Tea Tree Oil and water (you can try a weak solution first, like ¼ teaspoon of the water soluble oil to 1 cup of tepid water) and if all is well go stronger, such as 1 teaspoon of the water soluble oil to a quarter cup of the water. I know some women who use the Tea Tree essential oil neat on a tampon, but I do not recommend this for you until you gain sufficient experience with Tea Tree Oil and understand how it affects you in different ways. I believe that Tea Tree Oil is possibly the best product to use vaginally, besides oregano oil or fresh garlic. Try the probiotic & whey douche and alternate with the Tea Tree Oil douche. You will be quite surprised.

The Vaginal Implant Protocol: Stage 1 – The Kill Stage

by Eric Bakker N.D.

I have found from experience that the Kill stage works best in the week leading up to and including the menstrual period itself, and it is important to continue the implant during the menstrual stage, although you may want to omit the heaviest flow day. Continue until the flow has stopped completely.

Wait for two days before you commence with the Build stage. This will allow the vagina and its surrounding vulva skin environment to build up the beneficial flora it requires to maintain ideal health.

Related articles:

You may need to experiment here with the Kill Stage, some women may experience a change in their flow or even an increase in their premenstrual syndrome symptoms if they start too strong with the Kill Stage, if you have a history of premenstrual difficulties (PMT or PMS), endometriosis, polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) then you may need to be cautious in your approach to any Kill treatments leading up to your menstrual period.

That is not to say that you should avoid it, just be more careful and start with a mild treatment the first month in particular.

It takes about three menstrual cycles in chronic cases to really notice the difference, so don’t give up after the first month! You may well find that after completing these Kill and Build cycles for 4 – 6 months along with the Candida Crusher Diet, Lifestyle noticeable improvement in your premenstrual complaints and endometriosis. This is what I have noticed after working with many women, the feedback has been great.

This protocol can most successfully be used for:

Chronic vaginal thrush

Candida vaginal yeast infections

Bacterial infections such as Gardnerella

The KILL Stage – Antimicrobial Treatment Protocol

A – 1 crushed clove of garlic. Buy organic and use fresh. Kyolic tm aged garlic extract can be used if you travel a lot, but I prefer to recommend fresh as it gives outstanding results most every time, I have verified this with hundreds of cases. Fresh garlic is always best when it comes to thrush.

B – 1/2 teaspoon of apple cider vinegar (use a quality product like Bragg’s)

C – 1 tablespoon of yoghurt. (Buy the best natural yogurt you can find)

Insert A, B and C at night before bed. Wear a sanitary napkin or panty pad to bed.

Be aware that garlic is bactericidal, and may affect the beneficial bacteria that were introduced with the initial implant program.

Some women just use the garlic and yogurt, others use the garlic, yogurt and vinegar. Do what best suits your needs.

Always re-introduce beneficial bacteria using the Probiotic implant protocol for one week after completing the antimicrobial protocol.

Follow the KILL & BUILD protocol several times a year to help maintain a very healthy vaginal environment.

During the KILL phase, take the recommended probiotic by mouth: 1 capsule twice daily. You want to improve immunity and plant good bacteria in the digestive tract, reducing the chances of transferring too many bad bacteria from the perineum to the vaginal area. Always remember to wipe front to back.

Always use this protocol in conjunction with my Candida Crusher Program recommendations. You will have a much better chance of an excellent outcome that way.

Best Results: do the local treatment, do the diet, maintain the lifestyle, and take the Candida Crusher supplements as recommended.

When you have intestinal candida (like when you have bloating, gas, diarrhea, etc.) and at the same time have vaginal thrush, I want you to do the Kill stage in conjunction with Grapefruit Seed Extract Vaginal Treatment, and not the boric acid treatment. GSE is more indicated because it will greatly assist in reducing any vaginal/fecal contamination from occurring.

Using this protocol and this alone while ignoring diet and lifestyle – while maintaining the cause – will give you temporary results at best.

Simple Kill and Build Phases

Garlic tampons, capsules or fresh garlic can be inserted intra-vaginally in the morning (kill treatment) and then lactobacillus capsules can be inserted in the evening (build treatment) to create a plan that both inhibits growth of the offending organism and repopulates the delicate vaginal micro-flora to its normal healthy state.
