Yeast infection and yogurt tampon??!
Question: Ive read that if you put plain yogurt on a tampon, and put in your vagina your yeast infection will go away. I have a couple questions about his.
Has anyone actually done this?
Do you put the yogurt on the plastic part, insert for a couple seconds, than take out? Or do you do the actual tampon? Do you leave it in for a couple of hours if you have to keep in it?
Could you just EAT the yogurt to cure the infection?
If you could do either way, what way has quicker results?
Do you freeze the yogurt on the tampon, or you just stick it in all gooey?
Can some please help and answer my questions!

I've heard that the plain yogurt/tampon thing works pretty well. You need to coat the tampon with yogurt, insert, and keep it inside for a few hours. Some people swear by a tampon soaked in tea tree oil, too. You need to put the yogurt on the actual tampon, not the applicator.
Drink plenty of natural (or organic) cranberry juice...no cocktails or added sugar....get the real stuff...it'll be bitter, but you won't have the sugars in your system to feed the infection.
The best thing you can do is to try to find what is causing your yeast infections...diet, soaps, etc etc etc.
yogurt works but having the tampon in isnt safe, you just have to somehow stick it up there without a tampon. Eating it may help but applying it topically is the fastest way other than using a real yeast infection treatment.
yes it is true. It has been said that Cleopatra used this cure, (minus) the tampon. I suggest you eat yogart regularly to PREVENT this infection, it changes the ph, which is out of whack when you have a yeast infection, and use an over the counter medication for now. If you just eat one cup a day it should prevent you from having a recurrance, at least alot less often.,if you are prone to yeast infections.
Well, you can use Yogurt....but it has bacteria in it and since it is not meant to be used in that way, can cause problems. Your best bet is Monistat vaginal. It will have quicker and probably safer results.
Yes, it works. Dip the tampon in plain yogurt. Nothing with fruit, etc. Just plain old yogurt. Insert the tampon and leave it for an hour or two. Do it once in the morning and once at night. It should clear up in a couple three, four days.
