Um i was told that you can use a tampon and yogurt that can get rid of a yeast infection by dipping the tampon in the yogurt and sticking it up your vagina!! Can you use vanilla yogurt??? Thats all i got in the house and would like to try some home remidies before trying something from the pharmecy any suggestions on what you use/used and it works really well????
no i already know its a yeast infection

Biotin (>20mg/day)
Oil of Oregano.
Grapefruit Seed Extract.

Have you used the capsules for a cure of recurring vaginal yeast infections? If so did it work and are there any side effects ? Also, any info on how men get treated for yeast infections or what otc medicine they can take to be sure they aren’t passing it back to you?

I haven’t tried boric acid, but garlic works well. So does the yogurt thing, except get a “good” yogurt with lots of live cultures and no sugar. You can also eat lots of yogurt or take acidophilus, and that will help.

if so which one should i use????

use an antibacterial oil such as tea tree

3 drops tea tree
1 drop of almond oil

when washing hair add the oil mixture to your shampoo and use as normal.

do this once per day.

what is a home remedy (sp) for a yeast infection?
also does a yeast infection delay your period?
i dont have a credit card so i cant buy an e-book

Hi Yolonda,

Yeast infections are so common its ridiculous and they always seem to come at the worse times. I had it for 6 months at one point which was a real low point and I hated the idea of using all those chemicals so I did some research on the internet and found one particular website so useful since it was completely natural!

In my experience it has been the only thing that got rid of my infection for good!
If you want to give it a try you can find it at http://www.QuickYeastInfectionCure.com

I am a male and when i get yeast infections i will get little cuts on the skin that covers my head on the inside. Is that normal? Inside of my forskin.

Yep, pretty much. What you describe sounds pretty standard.

I feel for ya, dude.


It really could be, yeast infections dont have to have the cottage cheese like discharge. but they always consist of burning and itching.
Go to the doctor, and they will tell you what to do and what to use.


Yogurt is the only "natural cure" for a yeast infection. Yogurt contains live culture which can balance out the "good" bacteria and the "bad" bacteria in the vagina.

Even then, this is not really considered a cure. A person can eat a ton of yogurt and still have a yeast infection. The best thing to do is to get to a doctor as soon as possible. They can properly diagnose you and give you a prescription for some antibiotics which kills the bacteria causing the infection. Good luck!

I have asked similar questions like this before and have done hours of research on the internet, and so has my older sister since she has the same problem. Anyway EVERY SINGLE time I have sex ( and I have had sex with 4 different guys in my life) anyway, EVERY time I get a yeast infection, so bad…that it takes months to cure it. I get all the best creams in the world, eat a ton of yogurt, take the right kind of vitamins for it to bring my body back to normal and eliminate chances of more yeast growth…I wear loose clothes and pads if I have my period, I keep the area dry, I stay away from foods with yeast, I drink this special tea imported from Europe that is really hard to get..etc…

So I have sex and then get the yeast infections and then wait a year after healing myself like crazy, and then when I have sex again after a year.. I am back to where I started. ITS SOO FRUSTRATING!! Gyno’s dont give me any good advice and I am desperate. Are my sister and I carrying some bad gene?
I just want to know if this is normal, if me and my sister carry some kind of gene that makes us so sensitive down there and so prone to yeast infections..or if this will eventually pass when I reach my late 20′s and my hormones change
I am not diabetic..and I sometimes use and sometimes don’t use condoms. Same applies for my sister

well you mentioned the vitamins and the yogurt but you never mentioned anything about taking the right anti-biotic, one effective one would be daktacort or daktarine cream (vaginal use 2%) the tube is white and green, scientific name is miconazole. but in your case and since it is severe, i will advise you to use gyno-daktarin; it looks like a suppository that you would insert in your vagina, you put it at night while you are sleeping and layed down, if you put it during the day the medication will sip out and you wouldn’t get the whole benifit. don’t use it while you have your period for the same reason(will be flushed out of your body with blood).wear a night pad coz it is going to be messy anyway.
get the srongest concentration gynodaktarin 400 mg and use it for 3 consecutive days( the pharmasist and the doctor will tell yuo to use it once but based on on-line reaserch and personal experience, you can use it as frequent as you need. for maximum effect place the suppos i your vagina and apply the cream on the outter part of your vagina(clitoris and labia’s)
you will be cured in three days or a max of one week .
meanwhile you have to make sure within this week or 3 days to :1- use a new fresh towel each time you dry yourself down there not to cross-infection
2- wash your underwear with hot water dry it in the sun or iron it to kill all the germs that could be still there. washing in cold water is not enough you cant kill all the germs only by washing you should apply heat
3- don’t cross towels you and your sister
4- wash always after intercourse only with warm water inside your vagina and don’t apply antiseptics coz it will kill your normal flora (your immunity on the wall of vagina) and make you more prone and succiptable to infection. wash the outer part with soap only
5-use the gynodaktarin of a less concentration i think it’s 100mg once a month profilactically ( just in case)
after you clear you find sometimes white discharge around the time when you are going to have your period don’t worry itnis normal it is only your vagina cleaning itself.
if you are having a sex partner at the moment he should also take dactacort tablets or an anti fungual medication coz usually guys can be carriers with no symptoms.
same rule applies if you are thinking about getting together with any of your old bf coz they will give it back to you.


no home remedies so just go to the doctor and get it taken care of. lots of men get yeast infection. it gets passed around like a common cold. from one partner to the other….husband to wife and etc. just go and make the appointment and stop passing it around

Can anyone give me some advice as how to cure a yeast infection?

Hello,

For years some doctors have advised women to insert live yogurt into the vagina to introduce Lactobacillus acidophilus bacterium and also produce a more acidic environment to help fight infection. Sometimes, freeze-dried Lactobacillus acidophilus bacterium containing pessary is inserted into the vagina for even more pronounced results. Continue this for an extra day after you get cured.

There are other effective natural cures for yeast infections available that can help to soothe the discomfort and frustration of a yeast infection, resolving the infection without the use of prescriptions and OTC drugs. They contain ingredients such as Cymbopogon citratus (Lemon grass), Calendula officinalis, and Tabebuia impetiginosa (Pau d’arco bark). All have antibacterial and anti fungal properties that effectively remove toxins and help to support the overall natural maintenance systems in the body.

Hope all that helped

Good Luck!
