    Hey Ladies....

    I am having a sensitive problem. I having a constant yeast infection except when I have my period. I have tried over the counter solutions and they do not help. Does anyone else have this issue? I have never had this issue until I started on all the different medications dealing with my MS.....HELP!

    I've never had this with any MS med, but I have gotten yeast infections while on other meds. I've found eating a yogurt with live and active cultures every day helps.

      Corso, you may want to have it checked out if the over-the-counter remedies aren't helping. It may be something like a bacterial infection, but it also might just be nerve-related from the MS if you're not having any actual discharge.

      I will share something that has worked for me in the past. I take a little apple cider vinegar, about a couple of teaspoons, and douche with that. Then, I put honey all over the external areas and sit on the toilet for about 10 minutes and hop in the shower afterward. Usually one treatment is all I need to do.

        That was my thought too, corso.

        QuickType, I understand the use of vinegar but I am but I have never heard about the use of honey. My first thought when I read honey - what a mess...Yikes!

          Thank you, ladies. I will try the suggestions. As far as the bacterial infection, I have had that problem and still the meds didn't help. I will try the yogurt and the vinegar suggestions but what type of yogurt?

            My dd had this problem, turned out it wasn't a yeast infection, it was another kind. Do consider getting it checked further if you don't get some relief with other methods.

              LOL - yeah, it is kind of a mess. I warm it a little tiny bit so it's on the runny side but not hot, and apply it a little bit at a time.

              I try not to get much inside and I do make sure to clean up really well afterwards because sugar encourages yeast to grow.
