Kicked a chronic yeast infection! March 28, 2008

Instead of trying to murder your yeast with antifungals, why not just send it packing with probiotics? I had a really stubborn infection for almost four months. I was tested for everything--diabetes, low iron, thyroid problems, etc. But I am healthy and there was no obvious medical reason for my infection; my doctor just kept asking if I was stressed out? She wanted to prescribe 7 months of Gynazole-1. The list of things I'd already tried was very, very long. From OTC yeast creams to natural supplements to prescription creams and Diflucan, nothing had driven the yeast into submission. I had already tried Culturelle, which is supposedly one of the best probiotics. Don't get me wrong, Culturelle is great---for your gut. I've since learned that the reason it wasn't helpful in my situation, was because acidophilus GG doesn't colonize the vaginal/urinary tract, only the intestines. I wish I had heard about Femdophilus in the first place. It really does have the proper probiotic strains to rebalance vaginal flora. I have been taking it both orally and inserting it vaginally--maybe that's TMI, but it just made sense to me to put the bacteria where it belongs instead of swallowing it and waiting for it to eventually find its way there. The relief was almost immediate, and after several days, things just kept getting better and better. I plan on staying on this one long term. I was browsing the Jarrow website, and saw in the FAQ's that for yeast they also recommend another probiotic called Saccharomyces boulardii. It is a beneficial yeast that will colonize your gut and make it harder for candida yeast to thrive. I figured it couldn't hurt to try, since it's inexpensive and the bottle contains a 90 day supply. Plus, like other probiotics, studies have shown that it boosts your immunity. I can't wait to give it a try. Incidentally, if there is a silver lining in all of this, it's that taking all kinds of probiotics, even the ones that didn't help my yeast infection, really does seem to have helped my immunity; I haven't been sick, even when my children were. Forget trying wacky diets or boiling your underwear to get rid of yeast!

My husband, fiance, at that time gave me HPV which probably caused my immune system to drop and I got a re-occuring yeast infection. Went to the HMO three times each time getting a stronger anti-fungal... nothing worked. I tried cutting out sugar, coffee, teas, and taking herbal anti fungals and colon cleanses.... I starting taking two pills morning and night after two weeks I felt so much better. I no longer needed to use the borax suppositories. YUP, boric acid inserted in the whowho every night for near six months - NO MORE.... Highly recommend the FEM. I'll be ordering another bottle for light maintaince just in case.... but I LOVE this product and believe it saved me hundreds in other treatments and all the frustration of ichy and wearing pads everyday.
