  The key is to get the vaginal flora back to normal. Antibiotics make that impossible.
  
  Time to rebuild. Look up Vinegar baths—they help with pH and give relief.
  — if you need to “start fresh,” get some tea tree oil suppositories (safe in pregnancy), but then once you’ve killed the bad bacteria, try to focus on rebuilding the good
  
  —D-mannose is a supplement that prevents bad bacteria from adhering in the Urinary tract but is also effective in vaginal health. Read reviews and get a good supplement. It can be a complex that includes cranberry. Drink extra water. It IS a diuretic.
  
  Probiotics specifically designed for vaginal health can be inserted vaginally and taken orally.
  Definitely see URO vaginal probiotics from the O-positive store; it includes XOS which helps multiply good bacteria quickly! Amazon. Not all probiotics are quality. Read reviews.
  
  —Increase Vitamin D3 K2 to at least 5,000 ius, but it can seriously help at higher doses while fighting these types of imbalances. As long as you take it with the Vitamin K2, high dose D3 is safe and effective! You can find drops online—this is a key nutrient!!
  
  —consideration: enzymes designed to blast “biofilm” can really help eliminate bacteria that wall-up and hide.
  —Diet plays a big role as well—too much processed sugar/processed carbs are going to feed bad bacteria and create a systemic issue.
  —allow pubic hair to grow; it actually protects that area!
  —Eliminate scented soaps/lotions/pantyliners if you haven’t already. Fragrance is horrible.
