My roommate always seems to be plagued with yeast infections… and we’ve heard of and looked up some home remedies online. does anyone have any or know which ones work well???

Thanks!

echnicea works well for yeast infections. Yogurt is also another popular home remedies. If you’re looking for more yeast infections remedies, visit http://www.realhomeremedies.com

My dog has had 3 ear yeast infections in 2 years. The first time she had it we took her to the vet and payed 80 bucks for drops. She didn’t like those so much. >.> The second time she got an infection it lasted several months before going away on it’s own. Now she has another one and I can’t afford to take her to the vet again. Is there some simple home remedy that I could possibly spray in her ears? I’ve heard about using alcohol and vinager(sp?) but I don’t know what the exact measurments are. >.< I’d rather it be something I could spray in her ears since she dosen’t like people messing with them too much.

I truly believe I have tried every product/home remedy on one of my dogs who suffered from yeast infections in her ears. None worked. What did work was changing her diet. Look for a grain-free food, or one without corn, wheat, and rice. Wellness Super 5 Mix, (formerly fish & sweet potato,) is what I use for her, and she never has yeast infections any more. (Except when she breaks into the chicken/cat/guinea pig/rat/human food
Good luck.

Hello All, does anyone know any PROVEN home remedys that will cure a yeast infection. I dont want anything store brand just natural home remedys. Thank you in advance.

Proven home remedies are:
1)wearing clean cotton underwear
2)drinking lots of water
3)Eating yogurt

But more importantly, not eating particular food groups might help you more. Yeast infection is caused by a change in harmones in our body. this could be due to pregnancy, stress or change in eating habits.

While consulting a doctor is always a good idea, some more of the natural remedies which seem to have worked for others can be found at the source.

like if i dont treat it will it go away?
it itches really bad, and i cant got to the doctores for 1 week so thats not an option. home remedies? and is it possible for it to go away without doing anything? please help:)
thanks all il love yyou!

Some yeast infection home remedies include inserting or applying plain yogurt in the areas affected. If it is the vagina, soak a tampon in plain yogurt and insert it at least twice a day. Repeat this regularly until the infection disappears. Consumption of yoghurt, buttermilk, unsweetened cranberry juice, and acidophilus in large amounts is also known to help a lot.

Douching with a solution of vinegar and water is another perfect home remedy. This is because vinegar has antifungal and antibacterial properties that will combat Candida. Simply mix a cup of vinegar in a bathtub full of warm water, and soak inside for about 20 minutes. Any kind of vinegar is okay, but apple cider vinegar has proved very effective.

Use of garlic is another way to treat this infection. Simply make a paste using garlic pods and apply to the surrounding parts of the affected area. For a vaginal yeast infection, you can also slice the garlic pods and wrap with a clean piece of cheesecloth and then insert in the vagina for around 20 minutes. Be advised using garlic may somewhat burn the area slightly, but is equally effective.

Arguably the most uncomfortable and stickiest home remedy for curing a yeast infection is using honey. Simply pour honey on all the areas affected and stay for 20 minutes. You can afterwards shower using warm water and don’t forget to dry the affected areas sparingly and thoroughly using a clean absorbent piece of paper.

Hope this helps.

I wanted to know what kind of bath I can take to help with a Yeast Infection, like the burning, itching.

I have Cranberry pills and Cranberry concentrate. I was taking them because I had a UTI, and about 2 or 3 days later I got a yeast infection.

Will the cranberry stuff still work ?
It’s my second yeast infection and I also want to know how to keep them AWAY && UTIs. I have a terrible immune system,
I don’t wear tight clothes, I take baths not showers, I don’t eat heathy though.

Please help.

Hi,

The cranberry pills are good keep taking them, they’ll help with both infections.

I’ll give you some tips on what to do, as well I would consider researching Candida, as you say you have a weakened immune system. Every factor seems in play to resemble a picture of Chronic Candida, I’m sure at the very least if you target it effectively you won’t have to suffer from Yeast infections any more.

I’m sorry to say as well, the unhealthy eating has gotta change, you gotta make a choice whether feeling sick and suffering from yeast infections is worth eating tasty but unhealthy food.
There are many things you need to start doing and addressing if you are suffering from a yeast infection. To start, do the following:

1. Wear loose clothing and undergarments, oxygen kills yeast, going commando and wearing nothing down there if possible is even better.

2. Get some unsweetened yogurt and rub it onto a tampon, insert the tampon and do this continually until the yeast infection is gone.

3. Cut out any and all sugar, alcohol and yeast from your diet. All three will promote the infection further.

4. Start drinking cranberry juice, pure not from concentrate with no added sugar, I know this goes against the no sugar thing but the acid content in the cranberries will alter the PH balance of your vagina and cause the yeast to die off.

5. If you can tolerate it, use a raw garlic clove and apply it to the infection, this may burn so dilute it with some olive or coconut oil, both of which can also help eliminate the yeast, especially the coconut.

6. Lastly if all else fails, begin adding 2 cups of apple cider vinegar to a bath. Only fill the tub up high enough to submerge your genital area. Stay in the tub for 20-30 minutes at a time.

Hope this helps, the yogurt is the key really, by putting good bacteria directly on the area you will eliminate it quickly. Make sure it is unsweetened and ideally keep an eye out for a variation called Kefir which has even more beneficial bacteria in it to snuff out the infection.

When all is said and done I would suggest you research Candida and take a test to determine if you are suffering from it, as anyone who gets yeast infections has Candida, it’s just a matter of how bad it is.

Just wondering if anyone has any advice for a yeast infection-any home remedies that anyone knows of that works.

Yes, when I was very much into natropathic remdeies, I would do one of two things…or both…use acidophilis liquid both orally and as a diluted douche..and/or take yogurt and use one of those applicators that they use for chemical yeast products or contraceptive jelly and insert yogurt (plain..live cultured) before bed for a few nights.
Sounds yucky, but it worked very well!
