A member asked:

My vagina smells like onion. i already take probiotics & uti pills. can i shoot yogurt in vagina & leave overnight for healing since might b infection?

Not a good idea: yogurt itself act as media for bad bacteria growth , You need right treatment not self treatment ,see your gynecologist after examination and culture , you will get the right treatment .
