Tarcy33 Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 This is my first experience with Whole30 and so far so good - EXCEPT that since about Day 4 I've been experiencing a yeast infection to rival any in my history. I have a crazy theory (completely unscientific & based only on my gut feeling) that it has to do with elimination of sugar? Like maybe all the yeast in my system has been happily feeding off sugar and now that sugar & grains have been cut out there's like a mad angry mob of yeast wreaking havoc on me. Has anyone else had this kind of reaction/experience starting out? I know this borders on TMI, but it would help my peace of mind to know it's not just me. Link to comment
MrsStick Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Sounds like a reasonable assumption, but I'm not sure how you could prove it. I'd say take some probiotics and keep yourself clean, and hopefully it'll all work out. (I've never used any OTC/prescription meds for a yeast infection and they've always cleared up, but I'm also hesitant to go to the doctor's if I don't need to) Link to comment
