How do I get rid of vaginal thrush?

Q. I have a case of vaginal thrush and it is driving me completely mad. I have been using the pessaries as prescribed, but it doesn’t seem to completely disappear.

Can you please tell me is there anything that actually works to get rid of this problem?

A. Vaginal pessaries can certainly help to get rid of the symptoms of thrush - but this is likely to be a temporary fix. To get to the foundation of the issue, you will need to take a more comprehensive approach, including some long-term dietary changes. Ensure that you are eating a wholefood diet high in fresh seasonal fruit & vegetables.
