A member asked:
I'm prone to yeast infections, is it ok to douche with probiotics after my period once a month?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, also...: Yes, it is absolutely safe to douche with probiotics, though you might try once a week or more. However, if you have recurrent vaginal yeast you may have intestinal yeast overgrowth and dealing with that will help more than anything. See http://huff.To/15mbzao.
