I know a lot of people get yeast infections around their period, and I am unfortunately one of those people. I am allergic to a lot of antibiotics, and monistat makes me so itchy and it takes a while for my vagina to go back to normal after using it. It makes me too dry and it’s painful.

I’ve heard a lot of home remedies and lifestyle changes can help prevent them or at least make them fewer and far between. My sister says eating veggies, applying coconut oil to the area, taking vitamins and probiotics. What do you guys do to help?
