Just wanted to post a little note out here for other women that may have had this problem. I've never had a yeast infection or BV, but self diagnosed a few weeks back. I have a new partner and I know doctors say you can't get it from your partner, but I feel that was the case. He is prone to bladder infections.
I actually didn't have any symptoms other than i noticed it sisn't smell quite normal, so I took the PH test and saw it was at 5.5
I started a regimen of primadophilus reuteri, folic acid, apple cider vinegar and tea tree oil baths.
I also did use RePhresh gel twice in the last month and a half.
I did another PH test last night and it came up normal. I hadn't been having symptoms, but I thought I would check on it again.
I have insurance and all that, but I really don't have a ton of faith in doctors, so no, I did not end up visitng the doctor. I had read of soooo many women that get put on Antibiotics and iit just ends up coming back. Antibitotucs can also kill off the good bacteria, which is how you get the infection in the first place. Granted, my problem was very mild, but I notice tiny changes in my body and was not happy to deal even with the most minor symptoms.
But if you are on antibitics to treat the infection, I recommend trying what i did as well because it worked well for me.
