Thank You for this home remedy!!!! I too have suffered from Bartholin' gland abcesses over last few years. Never extremely terribly, but 9 days ago I had one come up in a different spot and this pain was terribly. I am all about home remedies due to no health insurance. I read for about 2 days as the thing go worse trying to find something! I was doing daily site bathes, actually 2 a day. Last Friday I found this forum and read completely thru the threads and only found that there was just a couple whom it did not work for, so the odds sounded really good! So, Saturday night I tried the mixture! Now let me just say the odor was not good, but the resul was worth it. The abcess went down in size extremely yesterday and leaked some. I fell asleep the next night so I did not doctor the abcess, only to wake this Morning and it be very small. I am going to doctor it tonight to make sure the abcess is completely gone.
I am so thankful that I tried this mixture and thankful that Phobe shared it! I ell how know how to help my girlfriends!
