I've been trying to use Boric acid to get rid of the bv/yeast. I have not been back to the doctor.

I've used the suppositories for up to two weeks. One in the morning, one at night. It never seems to fully get rid of the infection. My vagina ends up feeling dry and the yeast is still there. There's always slight sour smell. If I stop using the suppositories the infection comes back at full force. (Blah, blah vaginal pH imbalance=never-ending cycle of hell.) I've tried taking acidophilus pills after stopping the suppositories to help rebalance things but I'm pretty sure they're not doing anything.

I haven't tried using the suppositories for more than two weeks straight. I have no idea how long I should be using them or whether or not using them for three weeks or more would be okay.

I don't know what to do. I'm about ready to try douching. I feel so hopeless. Any help or thoughts would be appreciated.
