Garlic for YI problem?

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 

I've had a YI for about a week now. I've been trying to use garlic to get rid of it. Every time I put a garlic clove in, I start to get sharp pains and cramps. Is this normal, a coincidence, a sign of a problem that I have with the garlic? Should I stop the garlic? I've also been taking garlic pills and thinking about taking GSE.

 

I really don't want to use any of the YI meds because none seem to be really safe. My OB prescribed 150 mg fluconazole every 3-7 days as needed, which is a class C pregnancy drug. I don't feel comfortable taking that even though he said it's fine.

Could you be hitting your cervix?  I don't know about you, but whenever I accidently hit my cervix when I put in a tampon or anything, I'll get a sharp crampy feeling a few minutes later.  

 

HTH.

I thought of that so was careful not to put it too far up this time. It seems to have stopped for now. I'm just paranoid because I've had several miscarriages so I'm afraid to do anything, even garlic that is supposed to be safe.
