Home Cures For Yeast Infection In The Vagina
Yeast infections in the vagina are commonly caused by an organism known as Candida. Although they can affect anyone of any age, they are most common in women and it is estimated that over three-quarters of all women will suffer from a yeast infection at some time in their life.
Unfortunately, conventional medication seems to offer little to sufferers, with a recent survey showing that most have visited their doctor at least 3 times for treatment. However, home remedies for yeast infection have been used to good effect and there are reasons why this is.
Over the counter and prescription medication can indeed offer symptomatic relief.

Probiotics are a natural treatment for candida. Probiotics are “live” bacteria which are often referred to as “beneficial” bacteria and are known to suppress the growth of yeast organisms. Lactobacillus is thought to be the best probiotic to use as a treatment for yeast infection as low levels of this bacteria often go hand-in-hand with an attack. They can be taken orally, or used in the form of vaginal pessaries. Some women have even found it useful to soak a tampon in live, probiotic yogurt and insert it directly into the vagina for a couple of hours.
Another good treatment is Tea Tree Oil. This highly effective natural oil has powerful antibacterial properties. The compound “Terpinen 4″ which is found in the oil is thought to be the active component. As it is very strong, it must be well-diluted before applying to the vaginal area. try adding a few drops to a warm bath. Alternatively you can buy tea tree oil pessaries which are the correct strength for vaginal use.
There is a systematic treatment which completely guarantees to quickly cure you of a yeast infection. You will begin to feel relief within a few hours and will be free of all symptoms within a few days as the treatment works to eradicate the cause, rather than just treating the symptoms.
