The premade suppositories probably contained other chemicals that you don't find in homemade suppositories. I suggest buying a bottle of boric acid, and gel capsules, and making your own suppositories.Replied By Keisha Nixon (Queens) on 03/12/2017
The best advice that I can give is to have your GYN call in a rx of boric acid suppositories to a compound pharmacy. The medication is specially made for vaginal insertion. It's worth a try. Good LuckReplied By Getting Older (Ny) on 02/15/2018
Thank you for letting me know how long this is going to endure. Have been using store-bought boric acid capsules for a week. It seems to have brought balance to Ph, but I have been very nauseous for a few days, and have had a couple of headaches (which I never get). I called poison control and they told me to go to the doctor, saying store-bought/non-pharmaceutical products can be any number of milligrams. It has been almost 3 days since I stopped inserting them, so I'm guessing I'm past the critical point, but I am still belching and have a continuous stomach ache. I wondered how long this would last. Sounds like a month, based on your experience. Thank you for sharing!
