Thanks for the tips... I'll definitely try some of these remedies on my next go-round with yeast.

Sweetpea, you put in the boric acid EVERY time you have sex? For me, that might be 3 times a day (since my bf and I only see each other on weekends)!

Or do you put it in after your "last act" of the night? I am interested in the pH issue, though. Will check it out at my annual exam in May.

bad jane, count yourself lucky!!

onesnowyowl, I've heard some people suggest drinking acidophilus milk and/or yogurt often to prevent infections... do you do this also?

For now I'm on the 3-day treatment and hoping it will work. And I have tried Diflucan a few times (I mentioned in the OP that I used a 1-day pill, but forgot the name), but it didn't seem to work last time so I went back to the generic Monistat.
