Yeast infections are no laughing matter and thousands of people each year are affected. The condition is caused due to an overgrowth of fungus called Candida Albicans. It is most often found in the digestive tract, mouth cavity, or genital regions and is characterized by excessive pain, itching and burning sensation in the genitals along with white milky or cheese like discharge. If it is not treated properly, it can take quite a long time to get rid of such an infection.
It is very important that you understand that most of the
so-called treatments for this condition simply mask or treat the symptoms and will only provide temporary relief, but will not do anything to permanently get rid of the infections. Although they may get rid of the burning itching and painful irritation for a while, they do not alleviate the root cause, which is Candida Albicans.

In women, yeast infections are the second most common reason for vaginal burning, itching, and discharge. Yeasts are found in the vagina of most women and can overgrow if the environment in the vagina changes. Antibiotic and steroid use is the most common reason for yeast overgrowth. But pregnancy, menstruation, sperm, diabetes, and birth control pills also can contribute to getting a yeast infection. Yeast infections are more common after menopause.
Most candidal infections can be treated at home with over-the-counter or prescription medication and can clear within a week. But if some other disease has weakened your immune system, consult your doctor for any new symptoms before attempting self-treatment. You may risk getting an infection.
Most women can treat yeast infections at home with over-the-counter medications:
Miconazole (Monistat-Derm, Monistat Vaginal)
Tioconazole (Vagistat Vaginal)
Butoconazole (Femstat)
Clotrimazole (Femizole-7, Gyne-Lotrimin)
Massage these remedies into your vagina and surrounding tissues for 1-7 days depending on the formulation. If increased irritation occurs to the area, discontinue the medication immediately.
If you are pregnant, consult your doctor before using these treatments.
If symptoms continue for more than 1 week, consult your doctor.
fungAL INF….antifungals work…
Eat some yogurt. Any warm moist area can become infected. You just need to be exposed to the bacteria to be infected.
add some flower and make bread
Monistat is where it’s at!
^_^
go to the doctor.
causes: wearing panties that restrict moisture, such as those made of that silky material (i don’t know what it’s called.) they recommend cotton panties, because the material breathes.
Diflucan is excellent for prescription drugs. If you can’t get that, try yogurt and Monistat. A yeast infection is an over growth of yeast because the flora balance is off.
i had a yeast infection one time and did not know it, until i went to my gynecologist and got a pap test and she told me i had one…….never even knew cuz i had never had one before………she gave me a perscription for Gynazole and it cured it in less than 1 day…………..yeast infections are caused by too much yeast bacteria in the vagina…………this can be cause by sitting around in wet clothes, not drying off properly after a shower or a swim, and also working out and getting all sweaty down there and not taking care of it right away, because warmth and wetness=breeding bacteria
Well… the cause that I’ve heard (and i’m sure there’s more to it than this) is an imbalance of bacteria in the vaginal area. If you have too much or too little. Other than some sort of monistat tablet I hear a home rememdy the asians use of putting yogurt in your underwear works.
I know it sounds crazy, but drink a bunch of theat wheat beer. Unfiltered. The unfiltering will congeal with the titanium matrix.
First of all, all kinds of things can cause a yeast infection. From what kind of panities you wear and detergent you use or toilet paper you use, if you use condoms, going to the bathroom, even having sex too many times before showering. Anything can cause it. How to cure is easy. Go to the store (WalMart) and get a yeast infection applicator and you have to use it for three to seven days at bedtime. Also just a personal little trick to help the itching, wash your hands very well and masterbate and then wash them again. For some reason orgasms tone down the itching. It sounds crazy but it works.
Yes, you can cure a yeast infection. Yogurt. Go to the store and buy plenty of yogurt in your favorite flavors but make sure that the yogurt contains active cultures – most do. Eat at least 2 pints a day and within about one or two days you will notice an improvement. Continue until the infection is gone. My daughter has problems with thrush occasionally and it’s always cured after eating yogurt.
Monistat and Diflucan to name a few. Infected by a partner or a change in the vaginal makeup ( stress, too much douching).
if you have had a yeast infection in the past, use the same med that treated it before. if you’ve never had one and are just guessing that is what you have, visit a doctor for a real diagnosis and meds. it could be yeast, vaginitis, STD, etc.
Well a vaginal yeast infection can be caused by sexual activity( the partner carries one also) or by improper cleansing of the area, and can be an indicator of other health problems like diabetes.
There are medications you can get OTC to treat it.
Other types of yeast infections can be caused by overgrowth of naturally occurring yeast organisms. The treatment for that is to stop consuming foods with added sugar in them.
using a syringe, (w/0 the needle) fill the syringe with plain yougert and shove it up in there. home remedy
I see you have 10 responses for this question. Let me add that yeast is a norm in it’s correct ph level in our bodies. Because you didn’t say where, I’m gonna assume you mean vaginal? Generally, yeast is located in the mouth under normal levels. There are a number of ways to get this infection. A simple one is an abundance of hormonal elements in the body that allow for an other than normal ph balance in the vagina. Another could be vaginal dryness that creates itching and a person scratches with fingers that they weren’t washed after putting food in their mouth and yeast is introduced to a warm, dark moist place to grow and grow. Another way is thru having to take antibiotics, sometimes these medicines not only destroy the bad bacteria but also the good and again decrease the ph level in the vagina and the yeast gets to grow and grow. Another way yeast infections accrue is thru sexual acts.This could be in an act of self soothing/masturbation. The vagina is generally moist and fingers that may have been in the mouth and go to the vagina open the door for this infection. Falacio…. and then the male introduces his penis to the vagina after he’s been in the mouth, yeast doesn’t really bother a man (supposedly) but it can live on his penis and infect/reinfect you. Today the doctors suggest you treat your mate/signicant other/partner to keep you from getting the infection over and over. Also there’s a possible link to yeast infection and the type of underwear worn by the individual. I still love Victoria’s Secret, thongs, and sensual, soft silks. The best way to get rid of it is to treat both partners and to take Diflucan by mouth with a treatment of the dispensed cream/or suppository. Of course your other respondents will also tell you you can purchase these products with out a prescription.
But not Diflucan, it is prescribed.
Another thing if you get alot of yeast infections,
you might want to speak to your doctor, it is forgottened or ignored that this is a symptom that also could be contributed to diabetes.
yeast comes from your hands most often, get miconizole at walmart, wash your hands before you touch yourself down there and after. if you have it a lot you might be diabetic, we cant fight off infection like most people can.
