    I just did day 2 of the treatment thinking that it was only burning because it was new and my body had no idea what it was when was I wrong. I am in more pain than I was yesterday in my applicator was thrown away. Also I just learned a very hard lesson on...

    I am using the three day. Seemed to clear everything up. For those of you who get yeast infection from taking these types of antibiotics, it's because it kills the bad and good bacteria. So I take women probiotics (make sure it says flora health on the box) with this antibiotic to replace my good bacteria. It balances everything out. That's the trick!!!!!

    While it was slightly uncomfortable to use at first, I soon got the hang of it. Used this for 7 days (seven syringes were included), around night 3 I had some stomach upset but that was the extent of the side effects. I will have another urinalysis done in 2 weeks to see if this cleared whatever infection I have/had. TIP: it's going to be obvious, but definitely make it a point to wear a pad o ...
