The key to effective control of vaginal yeast infection is in
determining its cause. Once you know what triggered it, you can
immediately eliminate the cause and then begin dealing with the
symptoms. Here are some home remedies for a vaginal yeast infection
you can use:
Use yoghurt and probiotics.
Vaginal yeast infection is caused by bad microorganisms that overrun
your good bacteria. By eating yoghurt and probiotics that contain
lactobacillus acidophilus, you give your good bacteria a fighting
chance, helping them multiply and destroy offending organisms in your
system.
Use an antibacterial wash.
To maintain the proper pH level of your vagina, use acidic liquids
such as apple cider vinegar combined with a little water as your
intimate wash. You can mix it with crushed garlic to improve its
antibacterial properties.
Use your tampon.
Use an unscented tampon with antibacterial dips such as yoghurt or
curd. Use this overnight. When symptoms disappear, continue using
this home remedy for about two or three more days.
You can also dip your tampon into a solution made with 1 cup of water
and 1 tablespoon of potassium sorbate. Insert and leave overnight.
You can also use 3 to 5 drops of tea tree oil to soak your tampon.
Put this on before going to bed.
Another home remedy for vaginal yeast infection is to use an unpeeled
garlic clove as a tampon. Wrap tightly in cheesecloth and remove in
the morning.
Create an unfriendly environment for bacteria and fungus.
You can make your home remedies for a vaginal yeast infection work
better by taking care of your body well. Always dry yourself
thoroughly before putting on clothes. Warm, moist areas are a haven
for microorganisms. Use loose-fitting clothes made from natural
fibers. If your symptoms are triggered by your diet and medication,
change it or discuss a proper replacement with your doctor.
