    Default vaginitis remedies?

    I am pretty embarrassed to mention this on here...but does anyone have any home cures for it? I tried looking on google and really can't find anything that goes into detail of how it would work. I do not have insurance so I can't go get the anti biotic. Anyone ever try anything that worked for them?

    Or if anyone has any online pharmacies that have a good rep I could order the pill from that would be great. I just want to get rid of this but do not have insurance

    The common wisdom is never douche, but some clinics these days are backtracking on that. A mild vinegar and water douche can help get your vag back to normal pH levels so that you can clear up a BV without a prescription for Flagyl/Metronidazole.

    1 part hydrogen peroxide to 3 parts water douche. Works great for me. Long term results means cutting sugar down or out completely and lots of water. hth.

    I was wondering should I only do this douche once? Would that summers eve water and vinegar one work? I have never used a douche before so I do not know much about them.

    if there is a low cost clinic or planned parenthood near you, you can go there, get checked for exactly what it is and get the pills you need for cheap. I really am not a fan of home remedies, especially since so many issues down there can seem similar to others and each is treated differently.

    Does it cost a lot to go the clinic for a prescription? Because the antibiotics are super cheap and they work. In the end you might end up spending more on different home remedies that don't end up working.

    Douche is super cheap. Yes the Summer's Eve one is fine.

    You would douche once, then give it a few days for the bv to clear up. If it doesn't clear up, then its time to try the clinic in case the problem is something else or a prescription is necessary.

    A lot of clinics will prescribe Flagyl for BV, I've had to take it twice in the past and it's wasn't expensive at all, and I didn't have insurance. I can tell you what the doctor told me, and what I've learned from homeopathic doctors over time because I suffered from chronic yeast infections. After you take the flagyl, they're going to give you a diflucan (sp?) pill to kill the yeast, but that seems to just be a quick fix sometimes. I went to a health food store and got a Yeast Cleanse by Solaray it's only one bottle of pills you take for 30 days, I think it was about 30 bucks. I take a probiotic every morning before I eat anything, probiotics are amazing for helping balance out your Ph stuff etc... I douche once a week with tea tree oil and distilled water. Make sure you rinse the douche bottle really well and also, make sure the water you use isn't too warm because the plastic from the douche bottle could release some chemicals. Some people recommend peroxide, but in my personal experience, tea tree worked wonders for me and feels great. ...kinda like a natural antiseptic Listerine for your vagina, lol.
    Other than that, wipe front to back, lol. Chill out on the thongs if you can help it, because they could be bringing bacteria from the back door to the front door (gross I know). Good Luck! xo

    one of my medications causes chronic yeast infections. Before they stopped working for me, I would use the OTC medications and then had to stop because they would stop the YI but cause BV due to the offbalance of good bacteria down there. I came across a thread on some other internet site about using boric acid to treat them. It works like a charm.

    boric acid is toxic if you take it by mouth. However, topically it is a disinfectant. It works so fucking well that I have used this treatment for probably 7 years. The only downsides are that it's messy and it takes a little while for it to work / for treatment to be done. However. It is super cheap and you don't need an rx.

    what you need:
    - boric acid (sold at most drug stores)
    - gelatin capsules (you can buy these in bags of 100 for about 3$ at the health food store)

    what you do:
    - fill one or two capsules with boric acid. Decide when in the day you want to insert them into your pussy. If you insert them at night, they will "activate" during the next day. If you insert them in the morning they will "activate around 6pm. This is a learning process.
    - make sure that you have something in your panties to catch the liquid that the boric acid interacting with your pussy juice creates. I always just put a bit of cut up towel in them. I hate how maxi pads feel and found it more comfortable anyway. It is kind of a lot of liquid sometimes.
    - do that for 11 days.

    what you should know about this:
    - boric acid re-acidifies your pussy. It will clear up yeast infections and bacterial vaginosis
    - it is toxic if you take it orally. DO NOT DO THIS!
    - when I say that the pills activate I mean that they will LEAK when the ba interacts with your pussy juice. It kind of feels the same as when cum leaks out of you. The liquid is clear (sometimes it feels a bit grainy).
    - if I have to do something I will leave the ba in for as long as possible and then right before I have to go out I will rinse it out of me as much as possible.

    this has worked for me for years - especially with resistant yeast infections. When nothing else works, this will!

    pm me if you have any questions and remember DO NOT TAKE THE BORIC ACID ORALLY.

    Vaginitis is actually a bacterial infection. There's nothing to be embarrassed about. Ihad it once and my doc told me a lot of honeymooners get it

    The bad news is that you will need to go to the doc to get a script.

    Good luck!

    How about go to a free clinic, or a low-cost one such as Planned Parenthood? If you call up and tell them you have an STD or vaginal infection they will get you in STAT. Like within days. Their fees are based on a sliding scale depending on your income, some are free. I had BV and went to PP. In fact, before I had insurance PP was where I went for everything related to feminine health. They're great.

    urgh....it's that time again: Bacterial Vaginosis time.

    I'm not sure what caused it. I used douching during my period but reused the containers 3-4 times after washing them out each time so maybe that caused the bacteria.

    Anyway, have the weirdish discharge, and smell. My boyfriend told me about it and I finally figured it wasn't just ovulation discharge.

    So I douched with straight hydrogen peroxide because I don't trust my tap water and I'm out of distilled water. Luckily, I picked up a packet of boric acid from the indian grocery for $1.99 a month and a half ago just so I'd have it on hand just in case. So I just put two pills in and I'm looking at 11-14 days of treatment.... *sigh*

    Anyway, I've seen other people say it works for them. How's it worked for you all?

    For BV....I just use plain yogurt and an unscented tampon.

    When I have a yeast infection garlic does wonders.

    Walgreens carries something homeopathic for BV - my sister didn't want to go to her doc and she said it worked amazingly well for $25.

    http://www.walgreens.com/store/c/vh-...028565-product

    I had it once many years ago and went to a Women's Clinic, got in right away and I think they gave me Metro Gel, not sure as it has been a while. But that cost me around $50 total.

    Good luck!
