7. What are the things which aggravate your suffering and which are those which ameliorate the same?
nothing specific aggravates it and obviously nothing has helped. Boric acid helped while I was using it, but symptoms came back when I was done. I feel best after a shower when I am clean and have rinsed off below.

My best friend are far away and I would love to be closer to them and spend more time with them, my children are extremely important to me- I pour out my energy on them, my family can be very annoying and intervening, my husband tries to be understanding and caring, my connection with him has drifted

11. What are your fears and do you dream of any situation repeatedly?
I worry that I am not doing enough with my life.I am missing out on something. I have no recurring dreams

12. What do you crave for in food items and what are your aversions?

Not so hungry in the morning, by mid afternoon get cravings for coffee (which I cut out) or snacks. Cutting down on snacking past 7pm has worked somewhat.

No. I have cut out dairy products and trying to cut down on chocolate due to yeast and perhaps my bloating and gas problem.

Normal. When I sweat then usually on trunk

Had a lot of gas but that has gone back tremendously I am not sure if it is because of sepia or that I cut out on dairy. Bowel usually 2-3 times, regular stool

Sleep is good. Usually on my left side

Husband would like more, but I feel very uncomfortable with my problem. Not very sexually active, feel like I don’t need it that oftern, not very sex driven- low sex drive

None

21. What medications have been taken earlier by you to treat the diseases and do you have any particular symptom surfacing after the medication?
I have gone through all the over the counter medications with no relief at all. I have tried the traditional alternative self help with boric acid, vinegar or hydrogen peroxide or tea tree oil douche, tea tree oil on the tampon, acidophilus orally and in a douche and a few other things- you name it I tried it. First I was told I had a yeast infection then bacterial infection then back to yeast infection. Nothing ever helped. All came back within a few days

given the etiology of the ailment, i would suggest you start the treatment with SULPHUR 30C three or four doses on a single day.

wait for 7 days.

i will suggest a follow up remedy if sulphur 30c doesnt give any relief.
 
rishimba last decade
Sorry I have not gotten back for a while. I was gone for 1 week. I was taking Sulfer 30 for 8 days before I got my period and it did not help. The itching has subsided, but it is still there perhpas once a day. The discharge is still there though. That has not changed.
Anything else I could try? Or is it just helpless.
Thanks much
Natalie
PS- I have a brochial cold right now so I am not sure other homeopathic remédies that I take for yeast may affect that too.
 
natweb last decade
natalie,

please dont get dissapointed.

it was not necesarry to take sulphur continuously for 8 days.

i had asked you to take 3 doses of sulphur only on a single day and wait for 7 days.

the next best follow up remedy is CALC CARB as this remedy acts very well after sulphur and this is also indicated after sepia.

if you have taken sepia and didnt have much success, now you should take calc.

please take CALC CARB 30C every four hours whenever the itching is maximum and continue till the itching subsides a little. it could be three. four or five doses but not more.

during next episodes, use CALC CARB 200C same dosage.

i feel you will get long term relief.

best wishes..
 
rishimba last decade
Is that Calcarea Carbonica?
It is not only the itching, I still have the discharge as well.
Sorry about the confusion
 
natweb last decade
yes, its calcarea carbonica.

it will take care of the discharges as well.
 
rishimba last decade
I have been taking Calc Carb 30C for 3 days, perhaps 3 doses a day. My itching has subsided very much, perhaps once a day usualy in the evening or at night. The biggest problem now is the discharge- clear like a runny nose type. That is constant all day some times more heavy than other times. I have not yet switched to Calc Carb 200C. I am waiting for that to get in.
 
natweb last decade
you can go for CALC CARB 200C after a week if the itching returns.

once the itching has reduced, this shows that that your body has responded. i feel, the abnormal discharge would also improve gradually.
 
rishimba last decade
you know, it has not been the itching that was the worst part of it. It has been the discharge. The itching is perhaps once a day briefly and that is it. But the discharge has not subsided.
I have the Calc Carb 200C. How often a day should I take it and how many pellets?
Is there something else I could take for the discharge? I have that all day long constantly and it is no coupled with itching.
thanks
 
natweb last decade
CALC CARB will not help much in stopping the discharge.

please take NAT MUR 30C thrice a day initially and then reduce it to once or twice a day after a day or two.

once you notice the discharge has significantly reduced, you can stop the remedy or take only once a day for some more days.

dont take calc carb any more.
 
rishimba last decade
Hi again!
The discharge has not reduced and since I stoped taking Calc Carb the itching has become more pronounced.
I think I am a hopeless case!
Do you have more suggestions up your slever? as you can see I am up for trying anything.
Thanks so much for sticking it out with me.
 
natweb last decade
if the itching is returning, please go for some doses of CALC CARB 200C one dose per day.

please report after a week and then we will recommend an slternate remedy if calc 200c also doesnt give permanent results.
 
rishimba last decade
So can I take the Calc Carb200 while I am taking natrum muriaticum 30 daily? Natrum muriaticum didn't help The discharge though either. Itching is now ok due to mensuration. But I think will come back.
 
natweb last decade
stop nat mur if the discharges have not stopped.

calc carb 200c should provide a long term relief to the itching etc.

lets see if a higher potency works for long..
 
rishimba last decade
Hi
I just got the calcarea carbonica 200 and will start that. I am not sure how many tablets how often a day.
The next problem!
I have strp again and have to take antibiotics. This is not going to be helpful for my battle against the yeast!
Any advice there.
 
natweb last decade
one dose would typically consist of 4 pillules and you should take it when the itching starts and keep taking it every four hours ( maximum 3 to 4 doses ) till the itching doesnt come down.

repeat the same during the next episode as well if required.

please clarify what is strp for which you want to go for anti-biotics.
 
rishimba last decade
I am sorry for typing poorly. I have strep throat and need to take Amoc-Clav (amoxicillin and clavulanate). I have not started it yet because of my fears of a bad yeast outbreak!
I have most problems with discharge without itching. Should I take a dose when discharge is worst even if there is no itching? Or just when I have itching?
 
natweb last decade
calc carb covers milky discharges as well, if it has given relief in itching, it will also help in reducing the discharges.

you can take a dose and note the changes.
 
rishimba last decade
My symptoms are most like Gettin-Beta. Worse at night than during the day. But sometimes that changes too and it's all day. I don't feel like there is a pattern to it.

There is a mixture of symptoms, sometime it's itchy deep inside without any exterior symptoms and sometimes the opposite. It feels kind of prickly and I usually don't have any strange discharge. It is usually just uncomfortable constant itching.

I have been on the pill for the past 8 or 9 months and finally stopped taking it about 6 weeks ago. When I finally got a period without being on the pill, I had bad symptoms for a few days before getting my period, then it stopped during the first three days and when my period tapered off, the symptoms started again.

My doctor keeps prescriping Terazol / Tercanzol and I have been applying it for 8+ months. I have also taken Diflucan. Nothing seems to work. Every once in a while I have a 24 hour time period with no symptoms and then it comes back again.

My stats are as follows.

I am 38 years old, take Synthroid 75 every day for Hashimoto's and do not have a specifically high suger diet.

I wear all cotton underwear and have stopped using dryer sheets for fear of being allergic. My husband and I use a water based lubricant with non-latex condoms without nonoxyl-9.

This condition is reeking havoc on my stress level.
 
mkbos last decade
please take CALC CARB 30C every four hours as long as the itching continues.

after a few doses, if the itch feels better, you can gradually taper down the dose frequency.

whenever the itch starts again, you can take calc carb 30c as suggested earlier.

after a few weeks, the itch will get weaker and weaker and finally get cured.
 
rishimba last decade
I have been using the Calc Carb 30C for the last 2 weeks. I started out taking 5 pellets (according to the package) every 4 hours as suggested and tapered off when it started to go away (usually with 24 hours). I would then have about 12-24 hours symptom free. Then it would come back with a specific pattern. Exterior spotty prickly itching for a couple of days and then I would go to sleep and wake up with an interior burning that is not terribly intense but definitely uncomfortable. The exterior itching usually subsides at this time. I also seem to have gained some weight while being on the Calc Carb. It is definitely weaker than before but not gone. Should I continue with the 30C or try something else?

Okay so this is my first time posting on this website ever! This was the first link that popped up when I typed in constant yeast infections so I joined right away.

I am 18 years old and I have had basically constant yeast infections for about a 2 years now and there is seemingly nothing I can do about them. My doctor/allergist said that there wasn't much I could do because we've tried so much and then I'd be fine for a while then some time down the road I'd switch allergy/asthma medication and they'd start back up. Th old time I have some relief from them are like a week or 2 before my cycle during the time I pms. The itching and discharge are so bothersome that it makes it hard for other things to happen...I'd really like some kind of relief and I've seen the survey that some women have answered and I'm wondering should I?
 
paperlily last decade
I have no idea if this post is still running, but I too have recurrent yeast infections since I gave birth to my now 18month old. I go to the Dr get Diflucan and it goes away, only to come back 2 weeks later. Symptoms include:
1.worse after sex
2. itching outer vagina and slightly inside
3. burning with sex
4. some mild burning from time to time throughout the day, but not every day
5. itching on and off throughout the day, worse after urination
6. moist, but discharge only present sometimes, white..moistness remains most of the day
-I have the same sex partner(married...we are both faithful), do not use hormones(did for years but have been off the pill since 2005).
-I take naturethroid 65mg
B complex, Omega 3/6, Vit D 1000mg, Probiotic
- it is relieved with a bath
- it is worse after urination and sex
Any information is appreciated as I am trying to avoid a diet that completely cuts out wheat/sugar/wine
 
heather30_72 last decade
try SEPIA 30C every 4 hours for some 3 days.

if it works, during next recurrence go for SEPIA 200c once a day for three days.
 
rishimba last decade
thank you for your quick response. I will give this a try...
