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.
