Has anyone ever used garlic to treat vaginal thrush?

No and I wouldnt recommend it. Use a cream from the chemist they can be a little pricey but are safe.

I've never heard of that curious on how you are supposed to use it, like consume it or put it on there (that would burn). Creams from the chemist (you don't even need a prescription for it) is the way to go. my son got thrush as a bub and passed it on to me through breast feeding didn't take long to feel it better and get rid of it.

Yep I have, but it didnt work as well as chemist products, and I was worried it was going to be lost forever in there! ;) Give it a go by all means, it cant hurt! A lot of ppl swear by it! I have also heard syringing coconut oil in works too as its naturally antibacterial etc.

Ive used white vinegar and water in a dish and wash myself. the midwife told.me to do when pregnant. it works for about 3 days relief. im a chornic sufferer when pregnant and creams dont work. i also used cold wet washer over myself to give relief as well. bit normally. yes the creams are better.
