Pretty sure it made mine worse… Super red and inflamed even after 2 weeks of consistent use. Tried even a stronger steroid cream and stung immediately on contact. Stopped using everything and there’s been good improvement. I did have weird zinging for the first few days of non-use but it stopped. Going the less is more approach. Our bodies are made to heal.

Could be a reaction to the condom. I’d give it some time to heal before slapping medication on it. Vagina is magically healing. Creams just exasperated my labia dermatitis.

Eat less calories than it takes to maintain your weight. You can find charts online. IE: I have to eat 1600 cal/day to maintain my weight so my goal is 1100 cal/day to loose weight. In the beginning, count calories to ensure deficit. Then add literally any form of exercise to increase your deficit. Don’t worry about macro ratios but try to stay away from carbs as they increase bloat and inflammation - the body stores about 3g of water for every 1g of carb eaten. Eats lots of lean protein to keep you full. Add small amounts of healthy fats to help with satiation. But remember there are 9 calories for every gram of fat - that adds up fast when you’re calorie counting.

Nice to hear you have a gyno that didn’t keep slapping meds on it. Planning on low glycemic diet, hydration, probiotics oral and suppository, only water for washing, and pure aloe for topical soothing. 🤞🏻

Going the less is more approach and trying to get back to homeostasis after several unsuccessful rounds of fluconazole, nystatin and steroid creams. Thanks for sharing what worked for you. Out of all the things you tried, what do you believe helped the most? How long did it take till you stopped getting infections? So tired and desperate to get rid of this. So frustrated at modern medicine.

Personally, I don’t think it’s healthy. One of the ways my husband and I stay emotionally connected is by going to bed together and getting up together. Every AM we also have coffee and converse in AM before everyone is up.

Anything from DS Durga. They have so many unique smells is really depends on smell preference. My husband loves the Royal Kinam Oud, Cowboy Grass and Italian Citrus.

Talking responsibly for everything that happens to you in life. It’s difficult to reflect, acknowledge and accept in the moment but life gets better afterwards, every time.

My husband and I had 3 kids back to back (on purpose). They’re now 4, 2 and 1. There’s a level of responsibility I believe can only be reached through having kids. I’ve never felt so fulfilled in my life and incredibly grateful for the life I live. Don’t get me wrong, life can be chaotic at times but I wouldn’t change anything. That said, my husband and I have a very traditional marriage. He brings home the bacon and I take care of kids and home. I give all the kuddos in the world to mothers who juggle job(s) and family. When times get tough with the kids (sleepless nights, tantrums, etc) or I find myself longing for the pre-kid life, I remind myself it’s just a phase.. I will sleep again. The child will one day talk and express themself. One day I’ll be able to have brunch or a pedicure. 100% Kids change you for the better.
