Bad thrush

Anyone have any tips? I have really bad thrush which is starting to bleed. Gp has put me on 50mg of flucazone daily since Monday but I am not seeing any improvement. I have tried boric acid suppositories but they just burnt and yoghurt which is making no difference.

A full bottle of apple cider vinegar in a shallow bath of water so it's not too diluted and just keep rinsing your vagina, stay in for about half an hour.

Did the GP confirm that it was thrush - have they had the swabs back? I would advise going to a local sexual health clinic if possible, they will be able to check under a microscope and confirm there and then and provide you with free medication.

Swab was done on Monday, still waiting for results.

Thanks to the person who recommended Tea Tree Oil directly on the vagina. Initial oops! Then all cleared up by morning. Relief is immediate.😄
