How Do You Cure a Vaginal Yeast Infection Without Dropping Your Pants?
If you're one of the 50% of women who have more than one vaginal yeast infection in their lifetime you probably are tired of going to the doctor over and over again. You're wondering how do you cure a vaginal yeast infection without the expensive trips to the gynecologist. Perhaps you'd also like to treat it with a home remedy and not with an over-the-counter cream. This article will tell you some home remedies to cure a vaginal yeast infection. I'll also tell you how to get a homeopathic remedy that cures a yeast infection without going below the belt.
The fungus known as Candida albicans causes vaginal yeast infections. You will find this fungus present on the skin and in the vagina of most healthy women. The vagina is typically very acidic and keeps the yeast from multiplying. A vaginal yeast infection is usually caused because the acidic level of the vagina drops down and the yeast starts to multiply. This can be caused by several things like antibiotics, menstruation, birth control pills, or stress. This is a very common occurrence with 3 of 4 women having at least one yeast infection in their lifetime.
There is a new way to treat a yeast infection that consists of spraying a solution under the tongue three times a day. But let's talk a little bit about the common ways to cure a vaginal yeast infection. All over the television you see advertisements for creams and pills that you can buy over-the-counter to cure a yeast infection. These are tried and true cures for a yeast infection. How do you cure a vaginal yeast infection at home? There are several different things that you can do.
Tea tree oil is a very popular and well known antifungal. If you put a couple of drops of oil on a tampon and place it into the vagina morning and night, after a few days you should feel better.
You can also mix a cup of vinegar into a warm bath and soak for about 20 minutes.
Many people use sugar-free, plain yogurt (with live cultures) just like over-the-counter creams. You can either dip the tampon in the yogurt and place it in the vagina a couple of times a day, or use some other method to scoop some yogurt into the vagina. You can also spread some yogurt on the external part to provide immediate relief.
These are all methods that you can do in the privacy of your home to cure a vaginal yeast infection. Would you like to know how to cure a vaginal yeast infection without messy creams or oils?
If you're not thrilled with the idea of treating a vaginal yeast infection with yogurt or sticking anything else in your vagina, try Yeastrol. Yeastrol is a homeopathic remedy for vaginal yeast infections that is an all natural spray that you use three times a day. It's not too late to get some now and if you're one of the 50% who have recurring yeast infections, make sure you have some Yeastrol on hand for the next time.

How to Get Rid of Yeast Infections Without Drugs
Oh, those miserable yeast infections! Yeast infections are common, but commonality does not erase painful irritations and discomforts. Irritating and embarrassing. Although, women suffer primarily from these infections, men can also get them through sexual relations. Sex with an infected partner allows yeast to pass from one individual to another.
Yeast infections, also known as Candida are caused by groups of microscopic fungi and yeast. Yeast is a fungus that naturally lives in small numbers within the vagina, but is kept under control by other healthy organisms within the body. When something happens within the body, yeast grows and interrupts the balance.
Antibiotics, increased estrogen levels during pregnancy, and hormone replacement therapies can trigger a yeast infection. Other diseases can be factors, such as diabetes and HIV infection.
Most often, women purchase over-the-counter remedies to treat yeast infections and get relief. But, if yeast infections prevail or happen more than four times a year, professional medical advice may be necessary.
Luckily, I've had only a few infections in my lifetime, but have found some home remedies that actually work to get rid of and prevent these nasty experiences.
Remedies that worked for me:
Plain Yogurt
The good bacteria in yogurt fights yeast (internally and externally). Since sugar feeds yeast, be sure to use plain unsweetened yogurt. Eating one cup of plain unsweetened yogurt a day will have your yeast infection gone in a day or two!
Prescribed antibiotics are known to cause yeast infections because not only do antibiotics kill the bad bacteria, it also kills the good bacteria. However, you can ward off chances of getting a yeast infection while you're taking prescribed antibiotics. The day you begin taking antibiotics, begin eating a cup of yogurt everyday. The antibiotics will kill the bacteria (good and bad) in your body, but by replenishing your body with good bacteria, you won't get a yeast infection.
Garlic
Yeast has other enemies, such as garlic. Instant relief from yeast can be obtained by inserting a clove of garlic into the vagina every few hours. But, if this seems disgusting or unappealing, garlic tablets are effective, too. Taking one tablet a day can prevent or get rid of yeast problems.
Unfiltered Apple Cider Vinegar:
Another enemy of yeast is apple cider vinegar (unfiltered). Adding a cup (more or less) to your bath water helps to relax you, and attack yeast infection bacteria. However, bathing with apple cider vinegar is not as effective as ingesting garlic, or garlic suppositories. And, NO, you will not smell like a salad dressing!
Water
Usually, we do not drink the necessary amounts of water we need on a daily basis. People should drink an average of eight 8-ounce glasses of water everyday. Simply by drinking adequate amount of water a day flushes excess sugar from the body that yeast feeds on.
Things To Avoid When Fighting Yeast Infections
Some medicines and hygiene products weaken the immune system, and you become susceptible to yeast infections.
-- Antibiotics and birth control pills weaken the immune system.
-- Douching can upset the natural bacterial balance.
-- Feminine Vaginal Deodorants are irritating, especially if you have an infection.
-- Undergarments made from anything material other than cotton (nylon and man-made fibers) prevent air to flow to and from the body. Trapping moisture and heat provides a perfect environment for yeast to grow.
-- Clothing that fits tight in the crotch area also create warm and moist areas for yeast; this also includes pantyhose.
-- Wearing wet clothing for extended period of time, such as swim suits allows yeast to develop.
-- Douching and feminine vaginal deodorants can upset the natural balance of bacteria.
