Q. I am allergic to the monistat etc, so I looked up home remedies and found that apple cider vinegar works very well. I have read to put it in a warm to hot bath water and bath with it. I bought Braggs organic raw and unfiltered apple cider vinegar with the "mother". They say that works best. How much of the Apple Cider Vinegar do I add to my bath tub water????
A. Fill a bathtub with just enough warm, not hot, water to create a sitz bath (enough water to cover your groin and just up to your belly). Add 2 cups of raw apple cider vinegar and sit in the bath with your knees folded toward your body (not stretched out flat). You can stay in this bath mixture for 15 minutes. Gently pat dry and make sure you are very dry before putting any clothes on. Wear only cotton underpants, preferably washed in natural unscented detergent.

A. Not even a little bit. You've been reading quack info.
ACV...is...wait for it.....just vinegar. It's nice tossed on a salad but it is of no medicinal value.

Is apple cider vinegar the best solution for a penile yeast infection (Uncircumcised)?
Q. I got apple cider vinegar
1. Does white vinegar work better?
2. Should it be applied directly to the penis?
1. Does white vinegar work better?
2. Should it be applied directly to the penis?
A. I have used unfiltered apple cider vinegar for many thinks, internal and external with much success. That said, I have never had the misfortune of a penile yeast infection. For external uses, I use it as a dandruff rinse ever 2 months and it is amazing stuff for that. Have also used it for sunburns. It "seems" like a contradiction to use it in this way, so you will get many naysayers putting their 2 cents in about it.
If you do decide to use it, you would definitely need to DILUTE it! In a very shallow bath (just enough water to cover your part(s), add a cup of apple cider vinegar, and swish the water around for a few minutes... You can easily get up and rinse off if it's too painful. If it's bearable, and one more cup, and just soak for about 30 minutes. Be sure to expose all parts you need to.
Do not use white vinegar... only unfiltered apple cider. I use Braggs Hope you feel better.

How often can one use Apple Cider Vinegar for yeast infections?
Q. Once? Twice? A couple times an hour/day/week?
A. A few times a week, if you are doing it properly. aka, NOT DOUCHING
You can do a sitz bath. This doesn't cure yeast infections but it can relieve symptoms and prevent yeast infections, or bacterial vaginosis. Fill the tub up to your hips, put 2-3 cups of apple cider vinegar in, sit in it for about 20 minutes.
