I can’t even tell you how many over the counter treatments and prescriptions that I have tried to use to treat my yeast infections. It was really terrible; I would feel ok for a few days but never really better in the long term. I was literally forced to find a way to care for my infections all on my own, not because my doctor wouldn’t help me; it was because I couldn’t afford to pay for the expensive treatments anymore. I found several all natural remedies and a few preventative methods too!
Cranberry: Cranberry helps to completely detoxify the body. The two ways that you can use cranberry are in a supplement that is a pill or it can be made into juice. If you are taking the pills you should know that it can turn you urine into a bright red color. That is completely normal. When drinking cranberry juice just have a few glasses and you will get the detoxifying benefits from it. It doesn’t matter how you take it, whether it is in pill form or if you are drinking the juice.
Yogurt: This is so simple; I couldn’t believe it when the pharmacist told me about this. I will start by saying that women that have any kind of issues with their vaginas should be consuming at least a few servings every day. For any problems with internal burning or pain take a fresh tampon and place a generous amount of the yogurt on it and place it inside your vagina for a half hour or so. If the area around the vagina is irritated then you may want to rub a small amount of the yogurt on the inflamed area.
Garlic- It tastes good and it fights off the bad bacteria that can linger inside your body. When you are experiencing burning pain that is on the inside you may want to consider using gauze wrapped clove of garlic inside your vagina. If it hurts on the outside try grinding some up and rubbing it on.
It could be eaten, made into a paste and rubbed into the sore area or it could even be loosely wrapped in gauze and placed inside of your vagina for relief.
