Dear Dr. von Almen,
Thanks for the advice. Somebody told me that douch with a tablespoon of
yougrt (with live bacteria) can also help. But I trust your advice
more, and let her know about the gel and douch.
I have a question - if the antibiotics heal BV doesn't it (usually) make
the yeast infection???
Anyway, thanks for your help. I sincerely appreciate it.
