One of the greatest things about losing weight was feeling good enough about myself to go on an online dating site and meeting my wonderful bf.

That is when "my problem" started. Every time I had sex, I got a

UTI. I went to a urologist and he has me taking an antibiotic a few hours before sex. Now, the next day I immediately get a yeast infection. I can't win.

I went online to find some sort of home remedy because it's really getting expensive buying all this medication. One of the web sites said to shove a clove of garlic up there and it will get rid of yeast infections. I am afraid to try it. I had read to put unsweetened yogurt up there, but that is not very easy to get it in there where it needs to go.

Okay, end of rant. :lol:

I wish it was that simple for me. I haven't had a bath in 27

years since my mom made me take one because she thought I would fall down in the shower after my C section.

showers only for me.

Denise,

Have you tried taking Probiotics on a daily basis, thereby maintaining a healthy bacteria in your body. I've only had one vaginal yeast infection due to antibiotics and have had chronic bronchitis and been on lots of antibiotics in my day. I used to take acidolphilus every day, but there are much better Probiotics on the market now. I take one called acidophilus pearls, made by Enzymatic, they are very small & easy to take. Their website is www.trupearls.com Worth a try? Good luck!

I am taking acidolphilus every day. I just increased the doseage. They had the pearls at the health food store, but they told me that this acidolphilus is better.

Which probiotics are better than acidolphilus? On the website you gave me the link to, there are several different boxes of pearls. I can't tell what the difference is.
