Is boric acid good for both yeast and bv

Posted By Aws (Atlanta, Ga) on 01/03/2015

I have been reading the posts on this website and I must admit that there certainly appears to be hope for yeast and bv sufferers. Within the last 6-8 months, I have had this sudden onset of BV that keeps coming back. I've been trying to narrow down exactly what could have caused the infection but I haven't had much luck. The only changes I've recently made are nightly doses of ACV before bedtime and the introduction of an herbal supplement for high blood pressure which has a primary ingredient of stevia. I never thought that ACV could contribute to these infections, but I'm not so sure about stevia. It is after all 3x sweeter than sugar, but it's supposed to be a healthier alternative. Anyway, I'm desperate and eager to get rid of these recurring infections. So now, I'm willing to try the boric capsules. My question is this...is this a treatment for yeast as well or will I have to follow up with a treatment for a yeast infection following the boric acid treatment? Something has to give...it's destroying my sex life and I've been married for 14 years.

HI U AWS, , , , , , , , you and your husband can be passing the problem as we did in our youth. Our Doctor was smart enough to know that and we solved our problem. You both must come clean.
