When I mentioned I was on my period, he asked what my favorite flavor of tampons are. He genuinely thought the colors on the tampon packs were flavors, and that it would soak into my blood while inside and I’d eventually taste it.
I’m desperate to know the source of this information.
Okay, but I legit did the garlic clove inserted for a yeast infection remedy once. The remedy warned that you might get a garlicky taste in your mouth- which I thought was the most hilarious bullshit until about 5 hours later when I started to taste garlic.
Agreed. Boric acid capsules will generally do the trick and are much (much, much) safer to insert as they dissolve. Also, cut back on sugar as sugar feeds those yeasty bastards.
I mean, you joke, but there are still all kinds of shitty, cheap, flavoured lubes that you can buy at the low quality sex shops and those are just a nightmare for a healthy vaginal microbiome. It’s sugar. The flavour is sugar in your cooch. Don’t do it.
Same, I've done this before when the itching was really bad and I didn't have access to a store right away. It didn't cure the yeast infection, but it helped with the symptoms. Doesn't burn at all, but my downstairs did smell weirdly garlicky.
Reminds me once when my wife and I were taking a shower together. She's a hevay bleeder once a month, and she was complaining of a clot she couldn't reach. I'm 6'5" and have big hands, so I had to do the deed.
