Natural Cures for a Yeast Infection - Safe Solutions For Chronic Suffers That

[Lowell Leonard]

In this article I'm going to explain natural cures for a yeast
infection. Yeast infections aren't fun. They're yucky, annoying, and
embarrassing to have. Have you ever been in a public setting where
your vagina was screaming at you to be scratched? Yeast infections
also suck because of the pain you get while having intercourse, taking
away from the pleasure you used to have. Even though its annoying, its
completely normal to have. Over 75% of all women will have a yeast
infection sometime in their lives. 5% of these women have chronic
yeast infections. If you apply to any of the above, here are some
natural solutions to eradicate some of the symptoms.
Yogurt
If you read anything on natural cures for a yeast infection, yogurt
will most likely be the first thing you'll see. This is because this
is an effective approach to reducing your symptoms of your yeast
infection. Yogurt is made up of Lactobacillus acidophilus, which is a
bacterium that your vagina naturally produces (healthy vaginas will
have a good amount of this). By producing hydrogen peroxide, this
"good" bacteria kills "bad" bacteria that is growing rapidly in your
vagina. I would suggest putting the yogurt in a plastic tampon
applicator and freeze it. Insert the tampon inside your vagina - it
may be a little cold but for many it feels pretty good, since there
vagina might be on fire from the yeast infection.
Teatree Oil
What you want to do is take the top part of a non-applicator type
tampon and coat it with a lubricant such as K.Y. jelly. The lubricant
will keep the oil from absorbing in the tampon. Next put a few drops
of the teatree oil on the top and insert into your vagina. I would
suggest keeping in there for a few hours every day until your symptoms
disappear.
Important Points To Note:
Although these are great natural cures for a yeast infection, there is
one point thats important to understand. The use of yogurt, teatree
oil, over the counter creams, and most solutions you'll come across
only treat the symptoms of your yeast infection, not the actual root
cause. This means that although your symptoms will disappear
temporarily, there is a good chance your yeast infection will reoccur.
Many doctors don't advocate the use of creams because many times they
will do more harm than good and your yeast infection will come back
worse than before. There are programs that offer natural solutions
that will inform you what the root cause of your yeast infection is,
and effectively treat it. Its the most realistic approach to
permanently remove your yeast infection.
