the doctor I worked for told me never to take those over the counter vaginal fungal infection tablets because his father was an industrial pharmacist and he told me they cause cancer but one gp I was seeing made me because the infection was bad and all up I have had the antifungal treatment cream and pill 2 times now, and I prefer to really use a bit of vinegar and a few drops of pure tea tree oil and use coconut oil as its anitfungal and so on great for teeth as well anywhere on the body. I mean coconut water was even used as temporary drips intravenously during the war because of its cost bio-components to plasma and high in iron and vit c and electrolytes and minerals. but its high in carb and you have to watch the sugar.
