Have any of you gals out there (no male answers thank you – honestly lol!!) around the world tried the treatment for thrush/yeast/candida infection where you put a garlic clove in there overnight?
If so how many days did you need to do this,
did you leave the garlic clove whole, or score it or crush it a bit,
and how effective was treatment?
Just for your information ladies it CANNOT get lost up there or "work its way past/into the cervix"… this is not possible 
Also please assume that one has already visited the doctor and told that it’s thrush. There is more than one way to get rid of thrush, the chemist is not God!!
Please answer only if you have tried this or if you have a friend/sister/mum etc who has tried it.
Fresh garlic in contact with mucous membranes is a dangerous thing. Cut it in two or crush it and you are really asking for big trouble. Garlic is strong stuff. It will "burn" the mucous membrane of your vagina and leave sores which never really heal properly.
I have had clients who did that and regretted it ever after. Same thing with people who put half a clove of garlic up their nostrils to ward off a cold: they get sores inside their nose which never heal properly for the rest of their lives.
The best cure for candida/yeast infection is GSE (grapefruit seed extract). I’ll give you the treatment by email if you are interested. It’s a bit long to put it here.
All the best for good health very soon!

I have tried the garlic remedy and it worked like a charm. I had repeated bouts of vaginitis and yeast infections and got tired of taking all the meds and sought out a naturopathic doctor who gave me the remedy.
She explained that you want to make sure the clove is smooth and unscored. She says that if there are any knicks in the clove, the juice from the garlic can leak out and irritate.
I did the clove overnight, and put it in 5 hours the next day and then back in overnight. It's great. Works wonderfully.
