I was diagnosed with CV approx 5 yrs ago after my 2nd baby and before my 3rd. I'm pretty sure I had CV for quite some time before diagnosis, possibly a further 5 years but sporadically and not chronic.
For the past 5 years I would say that my CV has been worse that I could ever explain, and if you are reading this, only you can really understand. It's with you all the time, painful and ruins your sex life. Since having my 3rd born, (he is now 3) until the last month I have had an extremely bad 3 years of CV.
At my wits end, and with little to no advise out there beside douching with bicarb, I decided that trying to 're balanced' my flora was my best course of action. for 3 consecutive nights, I took a tampon, wet the end and thickly coated in Bicarb, I mean fully loaded it! If you are having a bad flare up (this was the only way I now felt throughout the whole month with very little to no reprieve) then the bicarb will sting and sting bad. But, by the morning after the first night, my symptoms were approx 70% better and after 3 nights, I have been cured. This could be temporary - and if so, I will repeat the method.
Keen to know if this has worked for others or if you try this, has this worked for you too?
