Using boric acid for the first time can sometimes feel scary! But they are typically safe to use if they are prescribed by a provider (avoid if you’re pregnant or breast feeding) and are often recommended for women who experience recurring vaginal infections that don’t respond well to standard treatments. They work by: • Balancing vaginal pH levels, which can help create an environment less conducive to harmful bacteria and yeast. • Addressing symptoms like itching, vaginal odor, and unusual discharge caused by bacterial vaginosis or vaginal yeast infections. #boricacid #boricacidsuppositories #bacterialvaginoisis #yeastinfections
Everyone's discharge is different, so it might take a little while to figure out what's normal for you. While a funky-colored discharge might freak you out, it's probably nothing to worry about. However, in some cases, a different color could be a sign that something isn't quite right. #femininehygiene #femininehealth #vagtok #vaginosisbacteriana #bacterialvaginoisis #yeastinfection #uti #sti #trichomoniasis #gardnerella #chlamydia

A vaginal yeast infection, also known as vaginal candidiasis, is a common fungal infection caused by an overgrowth of Candida fungi, most commonly Candida albicans. If you’ve had one or think you might have one, you’re far from alone — up to 75% of women will have a vaginal yeast infection at least once in their lifetime. Vaginal yeast infections can be anything from mild and annoying to severe and recurring. #yeastinfection #yeastinfections #femininehygiene #womenshealth #candida #candidaovergrowth ##creatorsearchinsights
Using any type of wash or soap on your 🐱 can actually throw off your pH and increase your risk for infections like bacterial vaginosis and yeast infections! #yeastinfections #bacterialvaginosis #femininehygiene #femininehygienewash #womenshealth #vagtok
Replying to @Aloof diary if women are symptomatic, shouldn’t men be too? #bacterialvaginoisis #chronicbv #bvtreatment #metronidazole #boricacid #bvtalks #bvtalksoftiktok
