Question:

This is embarassing to admit however i am a sufferer of chronic yeast infections.. I have tried all the over the counter stuff, i eat great, i keep everything dry and how it should be...but yet they come back.
I was recently advised to try Boric Acid capsules, as they are very potent in treating the problem. First issue though is - where do you get Boric Acid in the lower mainland? and also, where do you get the empty capsules?
I haven't seen this stuff floating around London Drugs anywhere...so I'm stumped. I really want to nip this in the bud as soon as possible...

Surrey, BC is my location if anyone knows...
Thanks...

Answer:

Please do NOT use the Boric Acid capsules! You will disrupt the natural vaginal flora and cause yourself even greater problems - and cause recurrent infections. Do you know if your yeast infections fungal or bacterial? Tell me how often you have these infections and what your doctor has done for you this far. Are you sexually active with one (or more) people? Please give more information.
