YI

Has anyone else noticed being more susceptible to yeast infections since starting the cup? I think I have yet another one which brings my average up to around one every other month. I was super careful about washing my hands and all, but I think I may not have boiled the small cup (MCUK) I put in for the last light flow day even though I had thoroughly cleaned it with hot water and soap. Anyone else think this is the culprit this time? Off to spend $20 at CVS, again! *grumble*
