Bacterial Vaginal Infection

[Heritage Essential Oils]

Joy asked: What can be done for bacterial vaginitis. I found a recommendation in a book by dr. Scott a Johnson " Surviving When Modern Medicine Fails". He recommends 2 drops each of Rosemary, Tea Tree, Thyme and Oregano in 1 tbsp. carrier oil absorbed on a tampon inserted for 4 hrs. Do you have any recommendations?

Linda answered: The formula you mentioned sounds like a good one for fighting bacteria. It's about a 3% dilution (of EOs to carrier oil), but the Oregano may be a bit strong for the tender tissues. If I had this, I'd consider using Tender Tissue Spray and Bacteria Top Gun. I would probably add a few drops of Top Gun to my Tender Tissue and apply it every time I went to the bathroom. I'd spray into my palm and use the fingers from the other hand to apply and insert as deeply as I can. I'd also use Bacteria Top Gun on the bottoms of feet 4 times daily and back off with improvement. Blessings and prayers, Linda

Joy wrote: I honestly don’t know what did the “trick," but I no longer have bacterial vaginitis. Of course, I am now 68 and may be past the age when the tissue of the vaginal area react to not having estrogen. I was faithful to use the mix Linda recommends of Top Gun and Tender Tissue. I now only use it once a day (every morning). My problem with “testing” things is that I typically may do several things at the same time; i.e. yogurt, kefir and other types of probiotics – soooooo, I can’t pinpoint it exactly – but I am willing to say the essential oils were the primary healing source since the yogurt and kefir had done nothing prior. Thank you Linda for all you do for those of us who are not researchers like you are!
