How much probiotic should i take for recurrent yeast infection?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Billions of CFu: Use a probiotic that has billions of colonies (cfu) rather than millions. Also look for one that has the "friendly" yeast saccharomyes in it as that especialy helps discourage the "unfriendly" yeast candida.
