Home remedies for yeast infection? Ways to prevent them?!


Question: Home remedies for yeast infection? Ways to prevent them?
I had a yeast infection for the first time about a month ago, and I noticed that I got it a couple of weeks after having sex for the first time. I treated it and it went away within a week, but now I have another one. Are there certain things that often cause you to get a yeast infection? Like what are some ways that I can prevent them in the future? Also, what are some home remedies that will help soothe it or make it go away. I'm not able to make it to the doctor any time soon.

What I did was I put a small amount of diluted tea-tree oil on a tampon, which I kept in for about an hour or so. I then took it out, waited another hour or so, and then put some more tea-tree oil on another tampon which I kept in for an hour.

Alongside that, after every bath/shower, I made sure that I blow-dried down below.. Sounds really stupid but if your vagina is moist, it's the perfet breeding ground for bacteria. So make sure that you dry yourself properly before putting underwear on :)

Also, remember to wear loose-fitting clothes; avoid leggings and skinny jeans etc, try wearing skirts or loose-fitting trousers for a while.

Had a yeast infection myself which cleared up within 2 days of my home treatment :)



Candidiasis, more commonly known as yeast infection, derives its name from the fungal species candida albicans which causes such infection.
A condition not too serious, this infection can easily be treated with the help of yeast infection medication, most of which is easily available over the counter. Home remedies for yeast infection as well as natural ones are commonly recommended and are also known to be greatly effective.

Commonly occurring forms of yeast infection include oral candidiasis or thrush, genital candidiasis of which vaginal infection is more common than penal, and superficial skin infections. People having diabetes, cancer or AIDS are more susceptible to these infections, and also those having weaker immune systems. Such persons may also be affected by yeast infections of the gastrointestinal tract, pharynx or the urinary bladder and are at a greater risk of the infection turning life-threatening. Medical advice may, therefore, be sought in severe cases or if the infection is recurring.
For some people, all there is, is a little itch which can easily be ignored but for the majority of the population with natural relief for yeast infection

Drink lots of water
Eat a lot of garlic (cooking it into your food)
wipe well
And probably the one that works best for me is tea tree oil! You can get it at walgreens, cvs, walmart, ect.:)

Things that often cause them are : Bath salt, Not wiping very well, Poop in the wrong area, Soaps with perfume, ?Wearing Synthetic Underwear and tight clothing

Good luck and hope you get rid of it!
