Well, you’ll nedto use it for two weeks, keep it dry and abstain from ejaculation and sex for 6 weks. It’s not fun but it’ll help your skin and nervous system.

I have been told by a doctor that I have a internal yeast imbalance in my digestive system and it is causing me several health problems. What can i do to help restore the natural balance?
Im already on a yeast free diet and taking probiotics and have been for quite a while so please dont suggest that.

Acidophilous?

Does masturbating cause yeast infection. Like i do it 3 times a day..everyday… but i dont insert my fingers i just rub against something… and sometimes it smells like fish but just temporarily cuz i shower twice a day and it does not smel as bad…i also feel like constanly wanting to use the bathroom…. is that normal?

No, masturbating does not cause yeast infections. Yeast infection are caused by:

Lowered immunity
The Use of antibiotics
Birth Control Pills
Poor Diet
Pregnancy
Diabetes
Tampons and douches
And wearing tight clothes

My dog has a yeast infection in his ears. I have not been very consistent with putting the medicine in his ears every night. Earlier, he shook his head and blood droplets were slung everywhere. What should I do? Should I put the medicine in now…would it do any good?

wash emm out with peroxide use one of those bulb thing to pull out the fluids get him to a vet

I have an itch but no gross symptoms.

It’s probably not a yeast infection if that is your only symptom.

I’ve just finished taking antibiotics for ulcers in my mouth(yeast infection my Dr. said). I also had rash on my private part to & fever blisters. The fever blisters haven’t gone away and feels like my mouth is getting sore again and also sore on my private spot. Can anyone help me to rid this problem?

Stop kissing people with disease…sounds like herpies

My friend has a 3 year old (just turned 3) who is potty trained during the day but still wears a diaper at night. She has a yeast infection diaper rash that is resistant to prescription meds. Her mom also feeds her yogurt as well as acidophiles. Nothing works. I suggested removing foods with yeast from her diet for a while and changing brands of diapers.

Any suggestions to help would be appreciated.

Those are good ideas you are doing with the yogurt( must have the live cultures) and it couldn’t hurt to refrain from yeast products. Also, really important is to tell the mom to refrain from giving bubble baths and such since the ingredients in these products can cause a nasty rash and or infection. Try an Aveeno oatmeal bath… oatmeal is very soothing to the skin.Also give her cranberry juice to drink.We did this for my nieces.
Babies in particular are prone to skin yeast infections in the diaper area, either in the perineum, on the buttocks or anywhere the diaper sits on the skin.
The proximity of wetness to the skin combined with the acidic nature of urine starts breaking down the outer layers of skin and creating good skin yeast infection conditions.

Babies and young children who are suffering from a simple diaper rash should be changed more frequently and have a diaper ointment of some kind to serve as a barrier between urine and the skin. Zinc oxide is the most frequently used because it also helps the skin to dry out, but anything that can protect the skin can help stop a skin yeast infection from developing.During an active skin yeast infection, you may find it helpful to wipe the area with witch hazel, aloe vera juice or some other astringent. Astringents help dry the skin out and shrink inflamed skin cells, so it both really can help with the symptoms and provide a remedy for the overall problem.
Just re,member, yeast thrives on moist areas so keeping very dry is the best advice. Best to your friends.


Men don’t have yeast infections, but in the other hand, if they have sex with a woman who having her periods, or who has a yeast infection, he has a greater chance of receiving a urine infection.

I’m working on curing a yeast infection (my second one) and I’ve done two doses out of three of the Miconazole. I’m curious if using the plain yogurt during the day to soothe the itching and such will counteract it or anything. Thanks!

It’s not only ok, it’s a good idea!

Check out "The Yeast Connection". It’s an excellent book on the subject. I think you can get it on Amazon, or your local library.

BTW, use plain yogurt. Sugar feeds the yeast.

Women often get yeast infections after taking antibiotics, because the drug kills off the natural bacteria and yeast takes over. I’ve heard that eating yogurt with active cultures can help replace the natural bacteria. But…how are those bacteria supposed to get from the digestive tract to the reproductive tract? Or does the yogurt only benefit the gut and does nothing to prevent yeast infections?

I doubt it could be through the bloodstream, because any bacteria in the blood is a serious medical condition. If it’s across the skin, it would seem you’d have a hygiene problem.
I don’t know who’s right, so I’ll put it up for a vote.

I actually got better results from eating the yogurt and even when taking actual acidophillous tablets. When you take either of these it goes thru the blood system and in to the digestive tract to help restore the balance of good bacteria there.

Taking acidophillous will help prevent yeast infections. I did it for some time taking the acidophillous tablets and it worked pretty well for me.

I would recommend checking with your dr to be on the safe side.
