Hey everyone!
I am wondering if anyone has experienced recurrent thrush or BV infections before and any advice or out of the box suggestions people have tried to clear it up! The thrush has been recurrent for roughly 1.5 years now with about 5 cases of BV and Im so over it! Ive seen doctors and a gynaecologist, been on 6 monthly treatments, taken probiotics, changed my diet, use only sensitive/organic sanitary products and hypoallergenic everything else now and its still happening! I feel like Ive tried everything and its literally driving me crazy and its really starting to affect my life!
Any help would be greatly appreciated! 🙏

I went through this for many years in my late 20’s and it affects your life massively. To this day I still will only wear cotton underwear. I tried everything and even had a gynecologist perform a hymenotomy to remove scar tissue and I don't remember that helping much and nothing seemed to help. I had my first child at 30 and things settled down after that. I am now 40 and still with the same partner and I haven't had anymore issues. I’m sorry I can’t be any help but I understand what your going through.
Dont eat Vegemite. Reduce sugar intake and dont drink citrus or apple juice as it feeds it alot. Always clean up after sex too as lingering stuff contributes.
