I’ve been having problems down there lately, so I searched online and on a few chat sites, women said a tampon soaked in vinegar does the trick. My mom has heard of it but never tried it but women online said its worked for them. So, I put it in and it’s been in for about an hour. Hopefully this one will work. Has anyone else tried this?

Please don’t say go to a doctor, we don’t have any health insurance.
The yogurt defiantly did not work well. It just made the infection worst.

i’m starting to wonder that maybe i got my body used to taking antibiotics and that OTC medications won’t work really much. i’ve been on antibiotics twice in 3 months for different reasons and the second time was prolonged.
i got that side-effect that may come with it called "yeast infection" (yay for me), a last night, i shoved in the OTC vaginal yeast infection "monostat 1". i put on some cream that comes with it but burned like hell so i’m not putting it on anymore.
BUT, last times i got a yeast infection and did that (monostat 1), before going to bed, when i woke-up, it were ALWAYS pretty much gone (the symptoms at least). on the paper it says it could take 1-3 days before symptoms go away, and some less than 24 hours. but for me it’s ALWAYS been less that 24 hours.
and i’m pretty sure it’s only a yeast infection: just finished anti-biotics, itchy, burning, cottage cheese. no smell though. it sucks cuz i don’t have anyother risks: i always where coton boxers, never wear anything tight, always dry completely after taking a bath or swimming, never on birth control pills, no stds, etc.
but like, what is it? what should i do? if this treatment ain’t gonna work. i reeeeally don’T feel like taking antibiotics again just for a fucking yeast infection. i’m trying out different tricks like, vinegar baths, drinking lots of water, easy on the sugar, LOTS of plain yogurt, etc. life could be worse than this but it’s just reeeeally annoying.

I have had it for like 2 days now I guess… and it is nighttime now, and i’m all sore and itchy, and I have to sleep with my pants off but i am self concious, and usually I would take a bath and put on baby powder and use a pad… butttttttt, i have no baby powder. no cornstarch… no vinegar. no douche. no tree oil, NOTHING that the internet is giving me. What are some common household items that you use, or you know someone who uses that works??

Stuff like this:

OLD FASHIONED REMEDIES
