So had thrush after changing lube.

As it's late at night the only things I can think of is a tampon dipped in plain natural yogurt. This will only work if the infection is in the early stages otherwise it's a waste of time. I always found that yogurt irritated me.
What worked best for me was a tampon dipped into water with bicarbonated soda added. It makes the vagina too alkaline for the bacteria or yeast infection. It might lessen the infection and reduce the inflamation for you.

BV is a nightmare :( I got it once after a flavoured condom, started with thrush then the evil bV :-[
This was before I was working.
Any way of postponing your booking? If I remember correctly it only takes a week to clear up. I reckon anything suggested may only suit a short booking, I was using wipes and liners but that infamous smell is hard to disguise. I didn't feel comfortable being with my bf as I felt gross :-X
I would definitely put it off until all cleared up, it would be terrible to put a regular off of you because of a funky fanny lol.
-
Loool funky fanny has just cracked me up! Ill re arrange bloody hate not working! ! But ill try the tips n see how I get on In week
And yes bv is EVIL!!

Balance Activ is great for BV. If your BV isn't too serious try putting a tube in first thing tomorrow morning and it might have gone / reduced significantly by tomorrow evening. Xxx
-
Try vinagar sprinkle it on your bits like a bag of chips works a treat lol

I second that, balance activ is amazing, boots sell it and does work very quick x

I've had BV twice, both times before I was working as I overly clean myself and I think my body is just used to it now that I don't get BV........watch this space, I will get it next week now that I've said that ::)
Anyway both times I took medication for it and it cleared up within a few days.
I know you don't want to loose the booking but if he's a regular he may rebook for another time, tell him you've taken your period or something.
I definitely wouldn't work with BV, it's unpleasant and not what the client expects when handing over money like that, especially the cost of an overnight.
I had to cancel an overnight booking a few weeks ago because of my period, although we were both disappointed, men are more understanding than we give them credit for on lady's problems and they know that it's something we have no control over.

Balance Active is ok but my reccommendation is Multi-Gyn Actigel (they do tubes too) - I had terrible thrush a few weeks ago (luckily coincided with time I had to take off anyway) and this cleared it up really well. Its also very gentle on that very delicate area and works well for BV too. I've always found regular thrush treatments too harsh so was delighted when I discovered this.
You can get it from Boots.

I've heard Boric Acid works well to prevent yeast infections and can help prevent bv. I know a few people who swear by it and they make up their own suppositories and use it once every week/two weeks to prevent yeasties and bv.
I hope yours clears up soon.
-
Thanx ladies I havent had bv for years so not impressed at all. Will try these out though x n yes u canceled my booking looks like a night in for me grr
-
Where can you buy boric acid?
Im 5 days into a killer bout of thrush >:(

Buy an oak bark tea, mix 3-4 tablespoons with boiling water, mix with warm water in big washing up bowl and sit in it for about 15-20 mins twice a day. You can also make a compress with clean small towel/cloth and oak bark tea. My granny says that is the best medication for thrush and other vaginal infections and it also helped me a lot many times. This+clotrimasol cream really works x
