Yeast Infections

5. This one's weird, but when you start 'feeling one coming on' or are in doubt, an individual little clove of garlic, with the papery stuff removed, put 'up there' is the most effective 'home remedy' I've tried, and will head the infection off before it turns into a full-blown pain in the ***.

Oh yeah, I posted on this a while ago. Very effective.
Tip: Thread embroidery cotton (or regular cotton doubled) up and back down thru the garlic clove and tie the ends together. Unless you feel like a frusrating half hour in the bathroom trying to get a hold on the by now slippery little f--ker!

Can the garlic be used as a preventative?
I typically like to get out of my bike shorts as soon as I come off the bike, but on Sunday we plan on riding/stopping/riding/eating/riding etc. for most of the day. Weather forecasts call for some heat, hence... sweaty shorts.
I would like to ward off the Yeastie Beasties before they attack.

DO YOU START TO SMELL SUSPICIOUS AFTER A GARLIC CLOVE SESSION?


like the idea of 1/2 hr bath with a book,whether you've an infection or not!i get thrush when stressed,sure as eggs is eggs.so maybe this bath idea is more fuel for switching the taps on
