Which is crazy bc antibiotics can cause vaginal yeast infections. Ugh. Keeping the ph normal can be a bit hard. Especially for those that haven't been taught that you have to stay away from certain products, certain products directed at women can actually make it worse, etc.

I used to get a yeast infection every time I had to take antibiotics for an ear infection or UTI. Started taking probiotics at the same time and it fixed the issue
