Quote: Then there is a little hint I've heard of but never tried since I don't ever recall having a yeast infection (isn't that weird) and that is to iron with a hot iron the crotch of your panties after the've been washed and dried, before you wear them. It has something to do with killing any bacteria that may be left over......... Oh my.....I don't believe I just wrote this ....I can just hear the reaction to this one....but had to pass it on since who knows (?) it may just shorten the infection time for you...
I've heard the same thing. As a matter of fact, I've also heard to wash all your panties in hot water, whether they're supposed to be washed in hot or not according to the washing instructions on the tag, to help prevent recurrent yeast infections beause the hot water helps kill the bacteria.
