Robin: re propholactic (sp) yeast treament...I am not sure that there would
be dis-advantages...depending on what you are planning to treat with...I
recently had an expereice with a mother who had a sizable crater in her
nipple. Her Ob called me to discuss my care plan. One of my reccomendations
was calendula gel...I explained to him that I like to use it for wound
healing as it also contains anti-fungal properties. I assured him that at
present I did not susspect yeast overgrowth. He felt that this would be a
very positive thing to do considering the situation. ....

    let us know how it goes....patricia
