  • @butterflie2484 There are women who treat those conditions with success using essential oils. My friend J.K. managed her herpes so that she could have a water birth at home.  There is an alternative to C-section!!

  • I love Ina May, but how about women with herpes or genital warts?

  • Go Ina May!  I love you!
