So I'm not sure other's experience with the douche, but mine was not productive. I used the betadine douche and it took the symptoms away for a few days, but then they came right back plus with a yeast infection. I haven't tried the hydrogen peroxide douche, and was considering it, but think I'm going to stay clear of that method all together. My experience with the other just makes me nervous. I highly recommend the Acid Jelly. I have insurance so I'm not sure of the cost, but one tube last for quite a while.
