It does help but at the same time it doesnt. When I have a case of the dermititis flaring it doesnt do any good.

This anti-inflammatory helps a little
Too Soon To Tell
Well It hasn't made anything worse so far. I've only been using it for 1 week really, so I'll have to wait and see.
Not Working
Makes my face red and irritated. Can only use about 1 time per week on nose & chin.
Not Working
Metronidazol helped immidiately but the fishy smell came back after 3 weeks. This was repeated 3 times. No I use ladyBalance on a continous basis to control the smell. It also helps on vaginal dryness.Metronidazole is a recognized carcinogen for animals wonder why it is accepted for women when it does not even help on the long term.
