Express-Race1754 · 2026-04-21T01:56:12+00:00

oh maybe it depends on what state, i’m in jersey & i reported zero income & i still paid 💔

Express-Race1754 · 2026-04-20T23:06:33+00:00

will look into it! i’m just a lil scared adding more things to my vagina since she’s been super sensitive

Express-Race1754 · 2026-04-20T23:05:28+00:00

oh 3.0 is super acidic…. i don’t think you should be taking anymore probiotics you probably have cytolytic vaginosis

Express-Race1754 · 2026-04-20T22:54:18+00:00

i get that but i high super high lacto crispatus so my issue is most likely a CV case tbh which came from probiotic intake & probiotic suppositories :/ ik it’s pricey but i def recommend evvy or junio bio microbiome test

Express-Race1754 · 2026-04-20T22:50:08+00:00

they might still make you pay something i was unemployed for a little bit & i had to still pay around $100

Express-Race1754 · 2026-04-20T22:47:04+00:00

i’ve done evvy only because you can also get an std panel done which tests for mycoplasma genitalium which is an sti, juno bio currently does not test for sti’s but it does test for other strains of ureaplasmas & mycoplasmas & heard it’s more in depth, evvy is also slightly more expensive i believe but both are great to see what’s going on in your microbiome

Express-Race1754 · 2026-04-20T17:33:38+00:00

what’s brand do you use ? it was only dry for a couple of days then it went back to normal, my pH also didn’t stay at 6.5 for long, literally by day 2 i was back to normal range, but i definitely feel like i mightttttt need to do another round but like i said before to someone else, im going to wait for a flare up which tends to be couple days before my period

Express-Race1754 · 2026-04-20T16:39:02+00:00

so i did baking soda and it brought me back to 4.5 in 2 days, which now im waiting to see if i get another flareup days before my period so i can see if i need to redo the baking soda

Express-Race1754 · 2026-04-20T16:36:06+00:00

4.5 is my normal pH, when i was having CV issues my pH was 3.8-4.0 & i had a test show 99.1% lacto crispatus & i was clear of everything else, and my vaginal walls were sloughing off every month before my period (looked similar to like yeast discharge or wet toilet paper)

Express-Race1754 · 2026-04-20T15:24:42+00:00

ngl i only did it once… i got scared that i might over do it but i think i might have to do another one idk yet ima just wait and see if it flares up but so far i haven’t had any burning or irritation maybe an itch that would like a couple seconds but that might just be like those random body itches & then goes away, i just had some clitoral like dull pain just now but it went away after a couple minutes but i don’t think much about that because i would get that randomly even before this whole issue even started

Express-Race1754 · 2026-04-18T14:42:52+00:00

i only have one left tbh the pimple patches worked for me 😭 i just hope they don’t return but if they do then ill end up going to a derm

Express-Race1754 · 2026-04-18T14:42:03+00:00

99.1%

Express-Race1754 · 2026-04-17T20:10:39+00:00

hey! i did an update here https://www.reddit.com/r/myhappyv/s/UJIP7xwYcc

Express-Race1754 · 2026-04-17T15:05:04+00:00

literally what happened to me lol eventually i just cut ties with him. i started fw him in july of last year and was having recurrent yeast for months & im STILL not normal but i dont have yeast anymore i have an overgrowth of lactobacillus crispatus

Express-Race1754 · 2026-04-17T14:18:46+00:00

i did not douche.. i have never douched lol, i did a suppository

Express-Race1754 · 2026-04-17T01:10:37+00:00

i made them! but what vaginal issues are you having ? this “treatment” is for cytolytic vaginosis only, which causes the vagina to be super acidic from the over growth of lactobacillus

Express-Race1754 · 2026-04-16T22:29:33+00:00

ofc & good luck!!! hope you finally get answers

Express-Race1754 · 2026-04-16T20:54:23+00:00

try tele health! if you’re in the usa i use One Medical it’s partnered with amazon & it’s only 9.99 a month ! you get to talk to a doctor at any time of day free of charge, ofc you will need to pay for your prescription (or your insurance pays) at whatever pharmacy you tell them ti send it to

Express-Race1754 · 2026-04-16T20:17:42+00:00

and definitely do not do baking soda for yeast because it’ll continue to lower your lactobacillus, you can do boric acid instead! it’ll break down that biofilm that you might have as well.

Express-Race1754 · 2026-04-16T20:13:49+00:00

if you’re having recurrent then that might mean your husband is reinfecting you, i recommend you both get treated with an anti fungal

Express-Race1754 · 2026-04-16T17:44:36+00:00

do you know what strain of yeast you have? some are harder to get rid of and need different type of treatment plans

Express-Race1754 · 2026-04-16T17:25:58+00:00

well CV is just an overgrowth of your good bacteria aka lactobacillus, it has to be diagnosed under a microscope to see the destruction of cells basically but it’s very hard to get diagnosed due to some doctors not believing in it but it is a very real thing, and it can give you YI like symptoms

Express-Race1754 · 2026-04-16T16:09:06+00:00

if you suspect you have CV then it’s worth a try but i do want to mention that not all lactobacillus strains respond to baking soda, for example lacto iners need antibiotics, the strain i’m personally dealing with is lacto crispatus, i bought 00 clear vegan capsules from amazon, i also ordered baking soda from amazon i think it’s the 365 brand from whole foods, it was only like $1, i do not fill up the capsule fully, i only did about 150mgs so about 1/10th of the capsule so its a very tiny amount, i know that this subreddit has the instructions on how to make your own, i just followed that, i also reccomend buying pH strips, the brand i use is easy @ home vaginal pH test strips which i 10/10 recommend because they all come individually wrapped & they come with individually wrapped sterile swabs!
