PumpkinZulu - you just reminded me of an easy natural remedy for candita (the thrush fungus). I swallow a whole clove of garlic everyday for about a week. it's the safest thing to take when you're pregnant, and it helps to give the immune system a kick in the backside too. I just did a lot of garlic a couple of months ago, and my friend who's 6mths pregnant is doing hers now at the request of our biochemist. It makes you smell a little like garlic, and (TMI warning) it makes u fart a lot as well as going to poop a lot more... but it really does work. If it didnt, our biochemist wouldn't give it to us.

gosh it's not easy being female is it?
